The Anykey does not use the same distinctively loud buckling spring keyswitches of the older “battleship” keyboards. It is significantly larger, heavier, and more durable than most modern keyboards (incorporating a sheet of steel running the width and length of the base, a ¼"-thick sheet of black plastic under the key bed, and weighing a bit over 3 lbs./400 grams) in addition to being serviceable (though some versions more serviceable than others; see above). The Anykey lacks Windows and multimedia keys except for model 2194002-XX-XXX, shipped by Gateway at the beginning of 1996 with Windows 95, which had “Windows” keys. There are Anykey keyboards dated as late as 1998. This model works correctly in normal mode under Windows 7.
