[FS] Whitechapel keyboard

Hi,

I'm not sure about the actual model of this keyboard. The frame is metallic, or so it seems to me. The cable connector is splitted in two, and has another connector on the corner.

Anyone interested?

Do you know what switches does it use?

I encountered these keyboards before - the ones I tried were some kind of foam and foil switch. IIRC, the keyboard's case was metal, so it was a rather heavy and sturdy keyboard.

These were intended for a Unix workstation made by Whitechapel. There's a picture and some details here: http://www.chilton-computing.org.uk/acd ... l/p003.htm

The additional connector and port were for the mouse.

That's a great board, but shipping to the US (especially for a board with so much metal) would probably be painfully expensive.
