New post [Group buys] Beam Spring 104+SSK Reproduction Project! First Batch In Stock, Shipping early next year after New Model F Project
Not necessarily - as noted on the product pages you would want to check the production keycap photos to see if they cover your desired key arrangement. From what I can see, the sets include the 1U | \, 1U Fn, 1.75U Right Shift, but not a 1.5 backspace, 1.75 Ctrl, or 1.25 caps lock. As noted earlier,

Yes, the keyboard mappings are editable on the Python script, it is not an extremely easy task but some people have made their own custom mappings.

New post [Keyboards] Keyboards are now mainstream and cool?
Nah I'm probably as old as you and custom/specialized keyboards were always cool. In the same way that Zoo York watches and apparel have been cool since the early '90s. You can be "hip" and also be into nice stuff like mechanical watches and mechanical keyboards. Interscope has just found a revenue vector

The article mentions how that "Copilot" key is remappable. GOOD THING, because they took RCTRL out to put that useless gimmick in?! Microsoft needs a very stern talking to.
Sadly, the guide the article points to explains how to remap this atrocity by pointing to... AutoHotKey. :? So, not actually

The IBM PC Jr was released 20 months earlier than Windows 1.0 — perhaps a stylized logo representing the command line ("J:\>") would be best.

New post [Keyboards] Noob beam spring question
There are a couple plug in converters out there but none that are universal. The 5251 protocol and pinout is completely different than 3278 which is different from 4979, etc.
Most people just go for a full controller replacement since the original protocols are a bit limited. Most beamsprings use a

New post [Keyboards] My first Model M
Thanks for your answers. But I just discovered that Vortex made a case like the IBM Model M but in aluminum. So I was thinking: what if I got a keyboard with this case and paired it with switches similar to the Topre?
My favorite switches are Topre (I use a Realforce with Silent Topre 45g) and I think
