JJJJound is paying homage to the clickety-clack keyboards of the 1970s. The durable, hard plastic keyboards were eventually swapped out with the flattened versions that appear throughout Macs and most other computers today.<\/p>\n
A few companies, such as Model F Labs, have continued to celebrate the classic versions with remakes of vintage IBM keyboards. JJJJound has teamed up with the company for a designer remake, which they say arrives \u201ctwenty-five years after widespread production of the original mechanical keyboard was halted.\u201d<\/p>\n
The JJJJound Mechanical Keyboard features the same capacitive buckling spring system as the OG keyboard models, providing that crisp key-tapping sound. Keys are covered in a zinc metal die-cast case in shades of grey and white with lettering printed in a serif typeface. A USB-C cord provides compatibility with most modern computers, including Windows, OS X, Linux, Android and iOS. It also comes with additional keys for emergency replacement.<\/p>\n
