I think it has its proper keyboard, but it has no
numeric pad. Did note
an alternate numeric set in the alpha keys similar to some keypunch
machines...
These make me think that it is a 2621-style keyboard. Sorry, like I
wrote before, the 2621 wasn't capable of running VPLUS applications
and so it was sort of shunned at the PPOE where we had one. But I
remember it had a single group of keys with the cursor keys right
above the numeric keys (and I think doing double duty as function keys,
albeit non-programmable function keys).

Interesting... tho the cursor keys on this one are in two banks of four
each, horizontally above the alpha keys.
