Remember having one of these at school in the late '70s / early '80s
OH MY GOD! I had one of those! I haven't seen a picture of one since.
The keyboard was so awful. I don't remember getting it as a birthday or other gift so it must have been a hand me down from a family friend or something.
Membrane keyboards are really the worst. I completely understand wanting to cost-cut to get units into schools and into the hands of kids, but that's too much. It's like someone saw a speak-and-spell and said "that's the ticket."
