Oh its on my alps list , after a SGI AEK1 and some sort of brown alps.

Hmm, are orders open for matias i wonder ? I want to replace the switches in my northgate with home made dampend click switches

150 of each will do.

Here's a very interesting one with gorgeous keycaps:

http://allegro.pl/pozostalosci-po-stare ... 59639.html

It seems to have (part?) of its switch assemblies intact, but the bottom (PCB?) is missing. Does anyone recognise the switch mount or switch internals? Are they foam and foil?

Looks like something seebart would be into!

seebart · 02 Oct 2015, 13:23

Right you are Scott. At that price. Sure. It's a auction I guess.

scottc · 02 Oct 2015, 13:43

Yep - it's an auction. Currently about 2.50 euro + shipping. Do you want it, seebart? I'd be happy to proxy for you.

seebart · 02 Oct 2015, 13:53

It's in Poland Scott, why Proxy? Are you buying other items there?

Blaise170 · 02 Oct 2015, 13:55

Looks nice but looks like foam and foil on my phone.

seebart · 02 Oct 2015, 13:56

Could be, it's just parts anyway.

I'll be visiting.

seebart · 02 Oct 2015, 14:06

Ahh in that case YES depending on the final price. I'll be wathching and PM you.

scottc · 02 Oct 2015, 14:08

I don't think it'll go very high. I'd be surprised if anyone else bid on it, to be honest!

Check out this beast too:

Damn. I bet that's 15+ Kilos. Nice though.

scottc · 02 Oct 2015, 14:11

I'm just checking out the "old computers" section on Allegro and there are so many beautiful retro machines!

seebart · 02 Oct 2015, 14:15

Yeah I'll take that one too Scott, you'll just fit that right in your suitcase right?

Damn that's nice.

scottc · 02 Oct 2015, 14:16

Yeah, sure seebart, I'll just drop it out of the plane as we fly over Germany!

I love all these old terminals. They've all got such gorgeous spherical keycaps.

Surprisingly cheap iMates...

scottc · 02 Oct 2015, 18:04

Well screw it, I got one. Thanks yet again Hz!

Blaise170 · 02 Oct 2015, 18:20

I'd buy if they were in the US.

shreebles · 02 Oct 2015, 20:15

This I believe is either a G80 or G81 3000 LPMDE. Probably thin PBT, as it has homing bars (no scoops), and it's yellowed and dirty. BUT at least it's free!

zuglufttier · 03 Oct 2015, 12:41

I sent a message to her

She'll have a look at the back of the keyboard for me.

photekq · 03 Oct 2015, 22:32

Outstanding deals guys. The pictures look an awful lot like those of the famous alles4pc! What a surprise..

Isn't that the Nuclear Data kit that was the inspiration for at least one of the older keysets?

scottc · 04 Oct 2015, 10:11

Oh yeah! You might be right. I'm not really familiar with the contemporary Nuclear Data but you can clearly read those words on the top-left. Nice!

If anyone in Barcelona/Spain is interested in a Model M2 NIB,it's mislabeled as a Chicony in Wallapop for 10€
