My daily use keyboard until last year came from a Digital Equipment
Corporation Workstation.  That should give some idea as to its age.

It was one the best membrane-based keyboards I've ever used, and only left
daily user-ship when it died after being doused in a milky drink of some
kind by one of my kids.
