New post [Mice & other input devices] Getting new gaming mouse, advice???

New post [Group buys] F104+SSK+122+62+77+50+Ergo orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards

It is a tight fit, but I would install the case bolt inside the bottom case hole, then install the 1" bumper, and then install the bottom case to the top case. Be sure to install the bumper so that it is as far as possible away from the head of the bolt. I just tested it now and there is just enough

New post [Keyboards] Interesting Unicomp history

The way it's phrased, it sounds like the same person owned Video Display and Ordway.
If it was the same, why are they charging their own company rent in the first place? I wonder if it's an accounting or tax game, moving around losses and forgiveness to create some number palatable to an outside investor

New post [Keyboards] Vintage Cherry smell

The most likely cause is that it was a PCB made of phenolic resin from which there has seeped formaldehyde over time.
The smell still lingers in paper bags stored with the PCB only for a week or so.
A mesh bag with the screw-in stabs and the spacebar-grey switch have been on the balcony to air out

New post [Keyboards] NetSurf wireless keyboard, should I purchase?

The ones I found for at that price were also NIB with all accessories. In fact, I pretty much ONLY see NIB ones, for some reason.

New post [Workshop] Flash New Model F with VIAL firmware

"R2" means "revision 2", "release 2", or "round 2" ...take your pick. (I tend to think "rev 2" or "revision 2" makes the most sense.)
It means the second revision or release of that model of keyboard. In the case of the B104 or BSSK, it means you ordered a round 2 keyboard with the larger/classic-style

New post [Workshop] “The Lord Of The M" Controllers (aka TLOTM) - call for ideas

If you press all the keys on a single input line, then you'll be shorting together up to 24 outputs on the above schematic, only one of which would be driving 0, and 23 would be driving 1. That is almost the same as driving a 0 directly into 3.3V. Well, not quite, the membrane's resistance will limit

New post [For sale] [WTS] Lexmark Model M Space Saver AZERTY NIB

I'm selling my precious Lexmark Model M Space Saver AZERTY NIB. I opened the box when I got it to take some pictures and marvel at it. That's when I took the photo you can see at the bottom. Cardboard box is of course present as well as the other half of the styrofoam case. The original cable is present.

New post [Keyboards] Omnikey Ultra Gen4 - programming software? Way to reset?

Wow, great find, thanks for sharing! The 1989-90 dates put this in the range of the Gen2 Northgates. I'll have to dig out a DOS computer to see if it works on the Gen3 models also.
The Gen2 Northgates came with several firmware versions on the labels, but the Gen3 models all seem to have the same version

New post [Deskthority talk] Reset password not working

Yeah no... Looks like my account is gone for good then. Unless I can get an admin to change my email to hotmail, but I doubt that's possible. Interesting that gmail of all services has the biggest problem accepting these emails.

Love to see one of these in such good condition. My second alps board was one of these, I was the one who posted about the dry lubricant on the variant I found. Sadly it wasn't in the best condition.. Seemed like a great board if it was though
