The top of this Acorn A5000 Keyboard has yellowed in sunlight. The Reset button and the socket for the mouse are on the back of the keyboard. Feet can be folded out to adjust the angle of the keyboard. Note the long cable because the keyboard plugs into the back of the A5000. The serial number, on the bottom is 25-ALB22-1012971. In the bottom picture in the top right the label says "Brisbane Keyboard 192,900 1ssue 1", Brisbane was the Acorn project name for the A5000.

This A5000 keyboard has red function keys which BBC Microcomputer systems (i.e. BBC Micro, Master, Archimedes A300 and A3000) had, I don't know if this is a repaired keyboard with the "wrong" keyboard inside or an original Acorn item. The Reset button and the socket for the mouse are on the back of the keyboard. Feet can be folded out to adjust the angle of the keyboard. The serial number, on the bottom is 82-ALB32-1010151. In the bottom picture in the top right the label says "Brisbane Keyboard 192,900 1ssue 1", Brisbane was the Acorn project name for the A5000.
