this would be so awesome if there would be ISO DE support, I still got a gutted novatouch that would be perfect for this

I few years ago I made a temporary keyboard table from scraps from other projects. I was only going to use it until I could get a good keyboard tray. I still use it :) . Sturdy, nice and wide, room enough for coffee (much better than putting coffee on the desk which then ends up falling on my keyboard

As an update, the beam springs themselves can now be ordered separately here:

They are IBM spec and some folks have used them to repair original rusty or damaged IBM beam springs.
Yes confirmed; that original proposal was not selected for

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

I am looking for a bit more uncommon versions (examplary not 5251).
- 3276 (can be incomplete, I have qwertz version)
- with APL keycaps
- with couloured PF keys

I... uhhhh... are you sure you are allowed to sell shirts with those designs? Two of the shirts in the shared image strike me as a trademark lawsuit waiting to happen.

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.

Hi,
It has become quite quiet here on this forum, but I just wanted to say: I had a 5250 Terminal + keyboard + converter. I've sold them some time ago so my memory is getting a bit fuzzy.
I'm pretty sure, it would not have been a problem to change, what you suggested. It was all a big python script,

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

I just saw teensy for under 10€ so I think I wait a little until they arrive before I destroy the pro micro…
