I bought my Northgate from Dee One Systems in Milpitas, CA in April
94, and paid $68 (+$8 shipping). As I mentioned in a previous post, I
have bought 3 Northgate keyboards over the past 7 years or so - 2
OmniKey 101's and one OmniKey 102. (My choice is the 101, YMMV), and
the price has gone *down* with each one.
