why not bump again, still have this thing laying around

Bump

maybe a price drop will entice an interested party?

Talk about a necro.

One more bump. Price negotiable.

moreover, the tooling is ancient and difficult to work with, apparently

Are you referring to the key cap tooling? Because the case is probably the same as the other Realforce keyboards.

Rats, my heart is broken. Seems like the Japanese layout is also out of production. Probably wasn't a hot seller.

I had my eye on one if these for the longest time but never would justify spending almost $300 on one. Still would like one if I came across a spare $300 through a sale or such. Have they gone out of production? Seems like it, can't find one anywhere.

Bump. Somebody buy this so I don't have to go reddit.

Eating oreos without milk should be a criminal offence anyway. Tastiness increases by +12000%! Anyway, *Family Guy, Friends, How I Met your Mother, and Big Bang Theory all suck ass and aren't funny in the slightest. *Coffee is horrible and tastes like concentrated mud. *The only thing that makes te...

Why not start a thread of unpopular opinions? I begin:
• Oreo cookies' filling taste dreadful.
• Dogs aren't that great.
• I don't like Johnny Depp.

I actually agree with all these.

-Oreos make me sick.
-Dogs are fun but too high maintenance.
-Johnny Depp seems like an asshat.

HI, added an IBM Wheelwriter project that I have laying around and never intend to finish. PM me if interested.

Still have the split keyboard tenting things and a bunch of thin metal wire.

What happened in the three months you were away? People are still using keyboards built 30 years ago :-þ I haven't been paying attention for longer than that. But yea, I'm still using 30 year old keyboards. But I have settled in a bit with Topre. The lower force is friendlier on my fingers than IBMs.

There was the Silo switches, Hall Effect and Beamspring MX-mount switch. BOX switches came and went. People got crazy about a switch combo named "Holy Pandas", it got extremely expensive but now there are multiple versions of them. TGR is becoming the new OTD. There was an MX Alps slider called the...

I guess one thing that's new is off topic is pretty much dead these days.

I changed my user name on another forum because a crazy poster kept harassing me and make false accusations. I just wanted to discuss the topics of the forum. Worth changing one's online identity if you just want to talk about the topic at hand without being hassled.

Haven't been around in awhile. Got tired of the other forum(s) I was visiting (non-keyboard forum, fyi). What's new around here and in the keyboard world?

Also see my sales thread, I got some stuff I want to off load.

Hi, I am selling this IBM Wheelwriter conversion project that I am never going to finish nor do I really care to finish. Includes a screw-modded Wheelwriter keyboard, phosphorglow universal Model M controller, compatible USB cord, and a map of the matrix. Link to video of keyboard in action. Price: ...

Yea, I really don't have the time for that kind of stuff.

Well, seeing as DT will soon be down a while as Matteo scarifies some limbs and scares some hens, it’s a good moment to point to Trev’s place: https://typehype.net/threads/pfu-topre-limited-edition-realforce-r2-tkl-tenkeyless-keyboard-review-and-photos.337/ I am so out of the loop during a time I w...

Was going to start a thread on this, but I will post it here. So what forum alternatives cropped up? I know the Input Club started one, but were there any others? What is hot right now? Just wondering, I don't actually plan visiting them. Also, I have not visit geekhack pretty at all since the sale....

So what is the latest on availability of these? I would like mind a variable force. I see they are on Amazon and there is limited stock on the Fujitsu web store. Mechanicalkeyboards still has the old version in stock and Elite Keyboards seems to have nothing (I wonder if Fujitsu decided to cut out t...

@vivalarevolución I have no idea what you were talking about. Being vague won't make you look any better... @vometia I'm curious about your previous reply, how the contents make me lose face? Oh...Don't tell me you googled "what Chinese people are afraid of most?" and Google told you "Chinese peopl...

@vivalarevolución Simply because here is way better...imagine you had a billion-scale business to run, and you were a smart guy like Elon Musk, you would made the same decision. @vometia Do you usually talk in this way? "I don't want to join the conversation, I'm not interested, I don't care at all...

All of America's allies know that Trump et al. are a bunch of buffoons. Next election cycle will be far different. Get over yourself. Also your tirade about Catholicism is both irrelevant and comical. P.S. Tesla is manufacturing in China for several big reasons but namely Tesla can pay their worker...

Lol. Tl;dr. Relax, bro. We're here to have fun. I don't care for a pissing contest. @vivalarevolución If the USA is such a star-spangled awesome then why those big corporations like GM (and recently Tesla) all rush to China it seems GMO food and heavy taxiation is rather enjoyable to you, then stay ...

What was this thread about again?

I'm not saying Tribalism isn't a problem. Looking back, I didn't state that clearly enough. Tribalism just isn't a problem in terms of elections in any way that an Electoral College actually solves. What problem today is solved by the Electoral College? Before, it was in the way of access- that's w...
