Welcome to DT!

I'm also Dutch, there's a few of us here! ;)

Model M looks to be in good condition!

thank you, Yes the board is nice condition, only the enter on the bottom-right isnt working and doesnt click anymore, is there a fix for that? I dont use that button, but i would be nice to have it working.
