Does anyone know anything about this keyboard?

Hey everyone, I recently bought a lot of some old NMB keyboards with hopes of reselling them. I noticed that I could not find any of these keyboards for sale literally anywhere so it seemed like a great investment. They have built-in speakers with a surround sound selector (which are surprisingly good) and a built-in mic as well. I have no idea what year the keyboards are from, nor do I know where they were sold at, or for how long!

I would appreciate any info on them if anyone knows anything.

Thanks!

 

I would think, somewhere in VERY fine print, it should say on the box where it was made??? I've never seen anything like it either!

 

Well, you know they were made when Windows 95 was popular. A new in box rt-9100win sold for $400 on ebay last year according to worthpoint.

Something from a google search:

Keyboard manufacturer NMB Technologies’ new multimedia keyboard, the Right Touch ConcertMaster, features enhanced stereo sound by SRS to create a 3-D stereo effect.

The ConcerMaster, model number RT-9100WIN, includes three new keys optimized for using Windows 95. In addition to SRS sound, the keyboard includes a stereo speaker system with a 2-watt per channel amplifier, a built-in microphone, and side jacks for headphone, microphone and subwoofer. A power slide switch allows users to turn on the speakers or internal microphone without affecting the keyboard’s functionality.

NMB says the ConcertMaster is compatible with DOS, Windows 3.X and Windows 95, and has received approval from both Microsoft’s Compatibility Labs and to use Creative Labs’ Sound Blaster compatibility logo.

NMB says the ConcertMaster keyboard will be available for the 1995 holiday season, with a street price estimated to be $129.95.

 

My goodness! Is there ANYONE out there still running on Windows 95?

 

Here's the trademark application if that helps.

I have a computer that runs on Windows 95. It's no good for the internet anymore (a dial up modem that still works and I occasionally use), but other than that, I wouldn't need any more by way of a computer. One of these keyboards might actually prove handy.

 

Here's one that sold for $25 + $40 shipping on ebay...

Sorry for the ugly links, no time to run them through a URL shortener.

 

It's fascinating how technology has evolved—this keyboard was cutting-edge in 1995! I wonder how it compares to modern multimedia keyboards.

 

Wow, a real rarity. Are you using it for anything?

 

I've been downsizing, so I finally got rid of it. I was using it mostly as external storage, and for some games that wont run on new systems.
