Also; i had an Olivetti like this one and i have a topre and you cant really compare the two. The only thing they really have in common is the tactile bump (which is much nicer on topre).
The seller said they'll supply an adapter cable for this keyboard but doesn't know if it will work. I guess we'll see when it arrives but if it's in good condition, I will most likely keep it in a box downstairs for some future use modifications.
The ANK-25-101 I own & have seen were SDL to DIN so a simple ps/2 adapter works. The normal IBM SDL cable fits. Of course this will tell you:
wiki/Olivetti_ANK_25-101
There was one example of a ANK-25 that was SDL to serial though:

If you are posting in Great/Interesting Finds you should attach links to the keyboards...

Here is an early metal badge model m with id no. 00801 for anyone interested in the early models. The seller seems to know what it is based off of the item description and its currently at a $56 bid with 3 bids.

A Sharp that looks in really good condition. I know these things also have the super heavy Cream Alps in the two top modifiers as well.

Those are neat but that one is on the high side. One sold for $75 shipped just the other day. These do come up every so often, so the well advised would do well to bide their time. Also there is a complete 5155 on eBay for $200.

Here's the Displaywriter from the UK, but the seller seems to have forgotten the wasp nest.

The wasps are needed to power the keyboard up for the beam switches to work, beware the side effects (stings) which maybe many, depending upon the season.

Appears that Blaise170 is selling a bunch of his collection. In addition to that Sharp that I posted, here is a TKL with a rigged spacebar (Gateron and daark blue MX combined).

$70 Omnikey 102 anyone? Seems to be in decent condition with the exception of a missing cable. They take a basic PS/2 cable though, so they're not hard to replace.

It's the thinner bezel model! Great price for an omnikey, I'm actually surprised it's still there!
