Re: Alps Appreciation
My procedure is to use a wire puller, pull straight up, but at the same time with a wiggling motion of the wrist.

Hmm, Keyboard Co are being more evasive now, with " if we can confirm a fault" (not helpful given its notoriously intermittent nature) and they dodged the matter of the return postage entirely. So I guess I'll keep the Mini and not order from them again. Oh well. :/ I would not have expected that o...

True, it is a nice little project though.Lowworkingmemory wrote: ↑I don't understand what the big problem is, it was just a 1990s model. It doesn't have the same quality as the 1980s Model Ms, and even then I would only consider the non PC/AT protocol or nonstandard colored Model Ms to be rare.

Is anyone keeping track of prices over time, at least for some of the more popular boards? Wondering just how much the market exploded and prices have gone up. On page 2 or so of this thread is someone in 2011 asking what their Beamspring keyboard is worth and the answer was “$100 to $200”. I’ve se...

What is estimate value for Olivetti ANK 2463 keyboard ? Oh I see that's mine. :o To be honest I don't remember what I paid several years ago but it was not much.
