F104+SSK+122+62+77+50+Ergo orders now open! New Kishsaver+Industrial Model F Keyboards

With permission I am posting some nice photos of the FSSK at home with a family of original IBM keyboards, including a Model F Unsaver! I like the placement of the Model F badge on the FSSK. Reminds me of the raised badge on the IBM 4704 promotional prototype photos posted a while back.

Here we have a great review over on reddit of the Ultra Compact FSSK!

My comment: Thanks for your thoughtful review alifen! And for sharing a nice custom photo! It creatively addresses adding other color keycaps with the limitations of the pebble ISO color scheme (the stepped ISO Enter key comes from Unicomp, which doesn't offer any other colors that match the colors offered by the new Model F keyboard project).

Update on USB keyboards output to PS/2, AT, and XT signal:

I have received a small number of requests on this topic. This open source project (also available for purchase pre-built at the second link below) notes that it converts any modern USB keyboard to work with PS/2 input on a computer, as well as the XT and AT protocols for original IBM computers:
