Keyboard: Musty Type #geekgear


A friend of mine dug this beauty out of his shed, how do I wash it and it’s keycard without damaging it?

Yuck! Good luck cleaning that relic. Maybe go to Yahoo for some cleaning tips.

Alrighty, #whengeekgear

I’m going to assume that it’ll be a “take it apart and clean everything piece by piece” kind of deal at the very least. Hopefully, none of the internal bits are snapped or corroded.

Does anyone happen to know what kind of keyboard this is (Like what model) I’ll upload clearer pictures later, because I can’t even find a listing of it to see how much it’s worth

Seems to worth a lot when unopened

$69.99 for a vintage membrane keyboard from 1999. I’ll admit, I do kinda like the purple, but the extra “internet buttons” give it a clunky looking shape. The style reminds me of the iMac G3’s keyboard slightly.

this is the nastiest keyboard Ive ever opened

RIP to the nerrs with Smell-O-Vision! That really is grimy. You might want to take the membrane sheet off and wash it.

Just did (a water pic of all things really did the trick)

When my friend said he “dug this up” I don’t think he was saying an expression anymore
