I'd thought i'd share this with you

So yesterday I got my hands on this old keyboard (the only date there is on it is 1991). It was dirty as hell so i gave it a clean, it is definitely a mechanical keyboard as it feels like a 100x better than the g510 but whatever. I have no idea wheter it works or not as i do not have the means of testing it, and no name either, the sticker on the back says ORTEK TECHNOLOGY, INC. KBTEK AMERICA,INC. Here are some picture of it :

Seriously, I have not a single idea where that came from. Last week I went over to my grandpa's garage and I saw it lying on a table in the corner, and as he has no use for it, he gave it to me ps. he never owned a pc so it isn't his for sure.

the pin on the keyboard is a male, the extension has a male also, so that particular adapter won't work. I did a quick search for a female one but didn't find anything.

I might buy it when i'm bored right now i have no interest in it tbh, the only reason i would use is to check if it works.

I did some googling on mine, I have a Tulip ATK 030244.
It's supposed to have Cherry MX switches (by the way they sound and feel I think blue), according to wikipedia.
I'll make proper pics tommorow
