Now you just need the Word Perfect keyboard shortcut template to put over the function keys and you're ready for 1985.

I loved the feel and key travel on these. And they could take massive abuse and food spills.

Word Perfect was so much easier to use when the function keys were on the left. I know secretaries in law firms who refused to upgrade their computers if it meant a new keyboard.

The only one I think I still remember is shift F7 for printing. I worked in a university computer lab back then with dot matrix printers.

Oh my gosh I have not heard “word perfect” for the longest time.
