I like that there is now a "go to top" icon on each post. It makes it much easier, especially on a cell phone. The new site works much better on the cell phone!

lol

The Spy does not show the icons for followed threads, unread posts, etc?

Anything with dedicated function keys under 122 keys is good. also, whats an M2? https://www.elecshopper.com/ibm-1395300-model-m2-keyboard-for-parts-or-repair.html This is an M2. Shorter travel, lighter weight board. They are a real PITA to take apart. The tabs on the case tend to be brittle and br...

Indeed. $100 wont buy you much less Model M than a 122 key. Seeing as the whole family is inversely valued to their size! Not necessarily. I sell tested and cleaned M101s for $100. And I have a slew of terminal M102/103 for $45 or less. But $100 will no longer get you an SSK. 4 years ago I was stup...

If you have all the caps I can help you out.

That is a rather broad request. Model M, M2, F? 62 to 122 keys is a broad range Can you please be a little more specific?

Yes, they are gone now.

The dye sub caps went for $275.

There are advantages to both sides, as well as disadvantages. In a forum setting, you can never be certain if the person just forgot to mark the post as sold. In an ecommerce, there is no doubt, since it will say out of stock. In a forum, people will say "keep me in mind if you find more". In an eco...

Mine runs fine on a shared server that costs me $36/yr. They did have to give me a little more RAM. There is nothing mentioned about proc speed. https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.2 ... -tech.html

That got there pretty quickly, considering the holidays and all! The other two were purchased by people in the classic computers chat, so they will not be converting them. They have Sperry terminals they want to use them on.

I have been working on this for some time. Magento is my preference, since ecomm attached to Joomla or Word Press seems to require doing everything twice. http://www.medma.net/knowledge-base/Magento-marketplace-module/2-14 This one is on sale for $99 right now, but there is a problem. A product can ...

I bet they feel like APS or beamspring

Based on what? Do you have evidence? These are linear switches.

The only sticker on the back says Model VS-230E K/B
S/No. 88082095

This is an LK201 look alike, but the tab is not offset, as it would be for a real VT200 series terminal.

As opposed to identifying keyboards, can I please get some help identifying switches? switch1.jpg This is not the same as any of those located on the inverse cross mount page on the wiki. https://deskthority.net/wiki/Inverse_cross_mount_recognition This one is square around the center, not just roun...

I have a quantity of curved steel plates from M122s. These could be cut down to make XT plates? I also have large quantities of Model M flippers and springs, as well as stabilizers.

But don't hold your breath.

Maybe somebody who is wiki smart can add some pics?

No one seems to know what this is? Is this a new, undocumented switch? Chyros? Daniel Beardsmore?

I have looked through the Alps switches on the wiki, and I can't find these. These came from an old Apple keyboard. It says Alps in the logo on the bottom left corner.

IBM XT refurbs for a reasonable price https://www.pcliquidations.com/p56870-i ... rd-1801449 He probably does have them in stock.

I found a bunch of Alps clones in some tubs yesterday. I will have to pull and clean switches.

Are those just standard 2-part IBM buckling spring caps?
