FACOM 6684KC3 Keyboard + Terminal

[HaaTa]

Now that the holidays are over, perhaps I'll have a somewhat steady stream of interesting keyboards coming in...here's to hoping





Uses my favourite switch, Gen 3, with a proper metal plate: Fujitsu Leaf Spring (Linear).
Some interesting notes, the terminal itself was for a FACOM Supercomputer. Most likely a FACOM M-780/40 or M-1800.

FACOM M-780


FACOM M-1800


Has the same sort of Hirose connector the FM Towns keyboards do.



The terminal was built around July 1990 it seems, which would lead me to believe that it's for a FACOM M-780 unless they made the terminals compatible (likely).


Sadly, broken feet on the keyboard.







































Once my lab is setup again, I'll make a USB converter, which should be pretty easy since I have the terminal...at least I hope it'll be easier
