Somewhat [inspired by this other question the phone keypad
design](https://anime.stackexchange.com/q/35729/20254), does the keyboard
pictured below—as seen in the first TV episode of _The Dirty Pair_ , “How to
Kill a Computer”—have any real world analog? I don’t recall ever seeing a
keyboard that was in a `Q`, `P`, `A`, `I` and `T` arrangement.

Is this computer keyboard on “The Dirty Pair” based on a real world keyboard?
