What did he get wrong specificly? Doesn't the model M use a membrane? Yes, but using a membrane isn't the one defining feature of "mechanical" vs. "non-mechanical". There are RD keyboards that use a PCB, but that doesn't make them mechanical. Also, Linus never said Lexmark only made rubberdomes. He...

It's up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7wmMZmMinM ... aaaaand I'm disappointed — not that I had high hopes to begin with, anyway.

Retr0brite your keycaps and case and they will look good as new. Of course, I've heard about retrobrite, but I can't even get that kind of hydrogen peroxide easily in my country, and it's going to return, even if not as badly. And I want my keyboard to look unique with these keycaps! But to make th...

Yeah I fully restored it. I didn't have to replace the foam because it was in great shape. I don't really think I have seen a nicer one condition wise, with the card still in tact. I got very lucky.

To be honest I think that Linus' "reviews" are more just hands-on first looks than actual reviews. They completely lack depth and often are really subjective rather than objective, but thats's just my 2¢. Great entertainment and nothing more. His upcoming Model M vid was actually pretty good.
