That eBay auction went out of my comprehension. How is it technically possible to jump from 550 to 2000?!? The previous bidder set 2000 as his Max bid? and it took just few seconds to overcome it?!? Without mention the winning bid (back in time of 16secs). Would someone wiser than me explain that, t...

Wow, I love Atari enthus...I can't help you on such inquires but your post made me dream ...
Still in time, though

If you are potentially interested in buying a kit, please fill out this quick survey: https://www.surveylegend.com/s/2lnv Very interesting initiative that seems paving the way to a new m/f hybrid project now that hybrid is so fashionable. I'am in if only the survey worked. Please, fix the broken li...

@Chyros, come back soon from holidays we want to know more on Nokia keyboards and Finnish accent too.

I'm sure many here remember this one. I got extremely lucky in tracking down some replacement parts from members here otherwise this would not have turned out as nice and would have taken much longer. The metalwork and paint was done by a local car restoration shop. *Spare keyboard module and upper...

The price is 13X what SneakyRobb paid his, though.....

May i suggest some sugru (Google it, if you don't know what I am speaking of) to fix the frayed cable.... Anyway prices are rising, even if nos, IMHO. Prices probably were rising, but this seller takes offers and has "more than 10 available" so I have no idea. I'll keep the second one NIB, but I'd ...

. Regarding adding the DT logo, thats a great idea, but, who should I ask? is there someone that is OUR LEADER? XD (if someone reading knows who to ask... let me know) Moderators needed here. @matt3o, will you do the honors of the house? Btw, there could be a conflict of interest (so to speak, let ...

I'd take those numbers out. Without the legend, it does not make sense. On the other hand, I'd add the DT logo, having received the permission, as sign of politeness in front of the community that fosters your nice initiative.

Leading Edge DC-2014 mechanical keyboard blue Alps switches Currently $122 with an hour left. Not that it's necessarily a "good deal," but I'd like to see what it eventually sells for. EDIT: And a much nicer one, currently at $78. Do you really like that stuff dude? I don't want to question blue Al...

Hello and welcome Given. It's a joy to know that this board is also attended by young people and not only by old nostalgics from IBM times gone, like me.... But maybe I'm depreciating myself too much. LOL
I'am looking forward to knowing which rare keyboards you'll publish on the wiki.
Ciao

So you found it nearly by chance.... What a lucky boy.... These toys are pretty expensive and coveted. Yes it's an IBM v3278 beamspring that you can easily convert to usb using a xwhatsit, playing a bit with it and then decide to yeld it up to me. :roll: p.s. how much did you pay it, if I may ask...

It's definitely a scam with that sticker on the back. A bad Italian job according to the kbd layout. It's seems to be a '90s clicky cherry, but I let the word to someone more savvy. The pvc manufacturing is the warranty of a bright future, though.

When someone else bid you off at last second....

Quite yellowish but it should be orange alps inside....

Wow Thomas, with this review you are adding another piece to archeological industrial history of times gone. Your sources reconstruction appears quite well funded and from the old articles being shown in the videoclip It seems the current nomenclature with alphabet letters was already in use at the ...

The only other keyboard I'd seriously want outside of a curiosity is the one from the 4978, but I probably have a better chance of landing on the moon than I do finding one. It's nice to read your thoughts about how you got into this hobby. But I have some doubts on the possibility of using an IBM ...

Wow! these photos, with working people in coats, make current data centers seem like a place for slackers....

Hi, may I be your second chance? Make me an offer with pics, please!

I'am nearly off topic, but how to change your own nickname on this website? @matt3o. Is there any chance to do that having initially chosen my nick just using my email that is my surname, after all. I checked on profile options but I didn't find anything useful to accomplish such a task.Any workarou...

I paid 70 for mine and I ravaged the old controller and cable out of it. It was my second model F after the XT. But it's still the only keyboard with a functional solenoid. This board was also the first board I tried the cypress controller on, and was also the test board for the relay and boost con...

Mine has got pf keys instead of numpad, Italian layout keys, both feet and original box as well. It has got an operative solenoid and it is fully working thanks to Luis Chinese adaptor purchased on eBay. I paid it 150€ shipping included. I removed the original foam, restored it and placed in my coll...

Nice tactile MX blacks by Mitsumi old school, here https://www.ebay.fr/itm/114251084750 Tactile MX blacks? I beg your pardon, even though it'd seem a non sense referring to an MX black as tactile and not linear, these late '90s version MX blacks, so gummy on actuation made me think of them as they ...

I had a dry spell for a bit of not buying anything during this pandemic but I just grabbed this massive Micro Switch board.

That red anti-panic button is worth the purchase, so as the spherical caps to sanitise....ahaha!!
