This is the first edition of the IBM Keyboard Operator's Guide from December 1992 (SA40-0749-0, P/N 1370430).

I don't recall seeing this scanned and uploaded anywhere, so I thought I'd have a crack at it. It's not an in-depth technical document (as the title should imply), but it's still a cool snippet of history. One of the more interesting things about it is (if I'm not mistaken) is one of the earliest references to the IBM Model M5-2 (Enhanced Keyboard with 25mm Trackball) keyboard.

I'm not entirely happy with how some of the illustrations turned out, so will likely be having another go at it when I have a moment and will upload an updated version. But, this should suffice for now.
