Applications
The Microsoft Internet Keyboard was part of Microsoft's late-1990s and early-2000s lineup of value-oriented desktop input devices aimed at home and office Windows PC users. PS/2 keyboards of this generation were standard equipment on desktop PCs through the Pentium II/III and early Pentium 4 era, before USB keyboards became the default. The dedicated Internet shortcut keys were designed to work with Internet Explorer and Windows shell functions, making common browsing and email tasks faster. Today these keyboards are a practical choice for any desktop or server with an available PS/2 port, for legacy system maintenance, retro PC builds, or as a simple, reliable full-size input device. PS/2 adapters are widely available for use with modern USB-only systems.
This Microsoft X08-01062 Internet Keyboard has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. The keys and keycaps show light yellowing typical of this era of beige PC hardware, and there is minor surface wear consistent with previous use. The purple PS/2 connector is intact and undamaged. No cracks, broken keys, or missing keycaps are visible. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
