Heyo, this forum is for all intents and purposes dead. The site has been sold a couple times, each to worse and worse owners. The site is now super broken with no hopes of fixing. I am not sure where everyone went, but there is a decently active community now on Discord. You can likely search for it.

quite a find!

DT is so buggy I can't even send a message to you. Would it be possible for me to get more images of this keyboard, mainly on the inside? I'd love to document the PCB code of the board and the sticker label as well. Please reach out to me via discord @mcmaxmcmc.

Unfortunately I didn't get it, but hopefully the buyer will enjoy the keyboard as much as this board deserves it

I've messaged you on Discord!

Usually there is a date label on the cable of these boards, does your board still have it? Aside from that, I myself don't know if there are any other ways to identify your board. I'd like some more pictures of the board, though!

Honestly, you may be in a one-hand-count of people who currently owns one of these, congratulations! I'd personally like more pictures of the system if possible. Looks great!!

o7 -- Thank you for your service and inspiration!

Came across an ASCII keyboard without any identification.

The keyboard matrix is made in Japan. The X and Enter are a lighter color, that seems original. The encoder is a KR2376 on a separate PCB below. There is also some sort of conversion PROM after the encoder chip, with 7 bit input and 8 ...

switching to an nginx + fastcgi setup would greatly reduce the hardware resources needed

guess that was simply my internet being a real nuisance then when the server went down :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

I couldn't have possibly imagine what the issue could be... I sure hope ...

I'll take 200, thank you!

Hate to break the news to you, but $7 for NOS SKCM Green is super low nowadays. Even for used switches SKCM Greens are around $12-15 per.

There is a Novatouch for sale on ebay, tempting!

Poor price


But to join in, yes, I also have a Novatouch. It's mostly stock -- it's got a dome swap from a 45g 108u just to make sure I have 45g domes on it (it really didn't change much -- guess the ...

This one rings a bell. I could reprise and tell you Someone should pay a princely sum for it because I like this comely beast. Then Photekq could come on, for a well deserved round of applause, to correct me in a delightful sotto voce. :D


Edit: looks like I misremembered. This one is worth a ...

Ooooof... yoinked. RIP

Maybe later down the line... it took quite a long time for me to compile this list tbh, and I'm having less time than I used to. I think there's a list somewhere as well.

Reserved.

So... there is this list:

The caps are quite nice, yeah -- although it may be a little difficult to find keycaps with colorways matching it exactly, in case if you're thinking of using the caps on something else.

why should i match them ? cant i just use them on a normal alps board, if the sizes of the shift , enter ...

These switches are Alps SKFL switches, by the way.
