Vintage Northgate OmniKey Ultra mechanical keyboard, widely considered one of the finest typing instruments ever built. Renowned for its heavy-duty metal backplate, iconic tactile clicky ALPS switches, and unique dual function key layout (featuring both top-row and classic left-hand F-keys), this board is a true legend among vintage computing enthusiasts and collectors.Condition & Testing: The keyboard has been powered on and fully tested. Every key registers input; however, a number of keys exhibit key chatter (registering double letters or repeating on a single keypress). This is very common for vintage ALPS switches that have seen storage and usually requires contact cleaner (such as DeoxIT) or light switch servicing/cleaning to resolve.Cosmetically, it is in good pre-owned condition with light surface wear yellowing. It is being sold as-is for restoration or project use.
What's Included: This listing includes the Northgate OmniKey Ultra keyboard, its detachable coiled interconnect cable, and an active PS/2 to USB adapter so you can plug it directly into modern PCs or Macs right out of the box.
