Buys DT. Does nothing evil.

DT:

Me: I'd like discussions on the Internet be like the Banquets of the Black Widowers.

esr starting a new topic on DT


DT engaging esr

This is all very nice, but ffs esr, when you are going to flaunt your boards?

Meanwhile...

If you want to have a spirited discussion with a real man like esr about how you wildly disagree with his opinions, you need to bring some pretty good arguments instead of boring insults.

If someone in the UK doesn't mind paying 3 GBP and promises me to keep the address private and not pass it on, you can register here and check the owner(s) of his last known address: https://eservices.landregistry.gov.uk/eservices/FindAProperty/view/QuickEnquiryInit.do The free info says there is no...

Got his real name and last address when I sent him something. Searched for it. I'd say he values his privacy and would hate to see those details published on the Internet.

You need a bit more evidence to declare him legally dead. You're not new to the Internet. People radically quit whether a keyboard otaku or into my little pony. Please do not argue about the law on this thread. When you do that, you jeopardize the effort. I tried to contact you like 10 years ago bu...

Still, I hear you. I can't begin to imagine how Chyros, with his lame hate of ergonomic keyboards and his beady little eyes, would review the Datahand, once he gets one.

Yes let's put in a disclaimer in my review that my opinion may suck, said no one ever. *

* DISCLAIMER. This opinion may suck, handle with care.

TLDR; How dare you to put opinions in your reviews!

IBM Daisy System 2500. Apparently a Dutch made IBM system inspired by IBM System 3741. Don't know if that's a beam spring board.

I browse a music production forum called Gearslutz that does something similar where the names of many products are hyperlinks to pages that show some basic information, all topics that mentioned that item, and a link to listing for that item Reverb or Ebay. What about renaming this forum to desksl...

I heard the blog will start tomorrow and will replace the home page.

Having to bow down to top DT writers and their unchallenged blog opinions, being degraded to the cheering audience for some DT influencers is quite the distopian thought. Don't tell me you can challenge them in the comments or the forum posts - I've read my share of blog posts and very rarely do yo...

The only M13s I have are NOS Lexmark and have trackpoints (no clue why I bought 2). Where there M13s without trackpoints?

The little-known Model M.

No likes/dislikes, only discord style reacts but none of the useful smilies are present as options, just :!: :?: :idea: :arrow: and :duck:. Are users more engaged?

You can't score if you don't shoot. DT stuff ranks well in Google, keyboard enthusiasts search for stuff, and it could be a very accessible entry/introduction to DT, instead of having to dive deep into the forum at once to engage with us Cherry racists.

My contact at Fentek actually told me they got them from Unicomp and at one point Unicomp tried to buy some back because they were short. This was a long time ago though. Makes sense though. Fentek wouldn't invest in a mold and plastics blah blah just for retro clear IBM caps. They just got a billio...

Symbolics guy is selling three of these for 4K USD each in a private sale. If you're interested see symbolics-dks.com for his contact details. 20210313_132215.jpg 20210313_120237.jpg I have three (3) XL-401s that are ready for sale. I have decided not to list them on eBay because of the increased fe...

Fentek got those caps from Unicomp a long time ago, NOS IBM.
