This machine is fairly common except for the keyboard that it came with.


Kaycomp was the intended name of the Kaypro Computer. This keyboard appears to be original and matched some of the marketing materials from NLS from that time except that they use a black numeric keypad. The keyboard mechanism is a type A (see below) making it possible that the keyboard may have been swapped onto this machine at some point.
