I recently found this completely unused Kinesis Ergo Elan KB333PC sitting in a Japanese second-hand store (Hard Off). Judging from the paperwork and packaging, it appears to be new old stock (NOS) — never opened, never used.
It still includes:
- The original manual
- Keycap puller and extra keycaps
- Warranty cards and documentation
- Original floppy disk software (!)
I tried contacting Kinesis to donate it for archival or preservation purposes, but I haven't received any response yet.
Have any of you typed on this model before? Would you keep it, sell it, or donate it somewhere?
I'm currently torn between keeping it in my own collection, donating it to a museum or archive, or selling it to someone who would truly appreciate it.
I'd love to hear your thoughts — what would you do in my place?
