I have one like this too. Unfortunately the sticker with the date information is gone, but on the front there is the IBM badge. Also has the detachable cable with the big 5 pin din connector and what looks like a heavy duty RJ45 connector at the other end. Not sure if it is XT or AT. Have not used it in a long time. Also very heavy, so a good deal of steel in there :-DD |

IIRC they work on both XT and AT, I'm quite sure I used mine on my original XT when I got it back in the early 90s. At some point I got a newer cable for it that has a PS/2 mini DIN. |

And yes: it's very solidly built, which is why is also works today. IBM always went the whole hog... |

THE BEST keyboard. :-+ Happy (belated) birthday to your Model M. I have a '94 around here somewhere, but it's missing a column and I haven't been ambitious enough to try to troubleshoot it. -Pat |
