Thanks for the reply. I did just go try. No luck
though.
Given that I now have a P/N for the key, and that it was used across
a wide assortment of equipment, right now, I'm feeling pretty
confident that one will pop up somewhere.
Only time will tell.
I believe I have the correct key. Although I no longer have my 1000e,
I still have a storage box which uses this key, so I'm not ready to
part with it yet. I'm 95% sure this key fit my 1000e, but it has been
a few years.

I thought maybe having a picture would help in finding the correct key.
Worse case, maybe its a legitimate justification to
purchase one of
those lock pick sets I see on the Internet. :)
I also remember successfully turning the keyswitch on my 1000e using a
small screwdriver and a paperclip. There is a knack to getting the
pins to stick in the right places while applying just slight turning
pressure with the screwdriver. You may be able to unlock the keyswitch
if you read about pin tumbler locks, no official "picks" necessary.
