89 model m for 7.99 from goodwill. I'll have to grab pics but seems it is in amazing condition. No missing caps and a mint condition grey sdl cable.

Some beige caps:

gogusrl · 27 Jun 2016, 21:51

those look dyesubbed to me.

Khers · 27 Jun 2016, 21:54

Nah, if only they were. They're merely a HAU-set.

gogusrl · 27 Jun 2016, 21:58

they look to be in excellent condition, very nice find/purchase.

I'm expecting delivery of a few of these :

Khers · 27 Jun 2016, 22:02

They are in very nice condition.

That seems like an interesting thing. And pretty! Guessing alps-compatible keycaps? That numpad though. I don't like normal numpads, but that's unusable

gogusrl · 27 Jun 2016, 22:06

They're NOS and the caps are alps compatible. I'll have more details when I receive them.

Ah very nice, I got one of those just out of curiosity. Key travel has got to be the shortest of all the keyboards I own.

Wodan · 28 Jun 2016, 12:04

Anyone put them on regulat Alps switches?

seebart · 28 Jun 2016, 12:09

Not possible, those are Alps semi-integrated dome.

gogusrl · 28 Jun 2016, 12:11

So the keycaps are not Alps compatible ?

Here they look like they are : https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=81879.0

edit : found a confirmation from Ascaii that they're compatible with "modern alps switches" : photos-f62/another-mystery-solved-sourc ... t1994.html

seebart · 28 Jun 2016, 12:17

Well maybe I'm wrong, been ages since I had a look at them.

y11971alex · 01 Jul 2016, 15:41

Just bought a DC-2014 and two Alps Clones

Knew I was forgetting to bid on something.. Bollocks.

scottc · 01 Jul 2016, 18:34

Got it for the minimum bid and all.

24 GBP shipped is pretty good. I just wish I was paying in a foreign currency to take advantage of the weak pound...

ohaimark · 01 Jul 2016, 21:16

Just won that GovDeals auction with the M15 and SAU caps for $225 after the buyer's premium. YEAHHHHH!

mecano · 01 Jul 2016, 22:16

What will you do with the M15, scavenge caps?

Got a cherry G84 4100 last Sunday for 2 euros! (ML switches, talk about short key travel seebart

), since my Planck mini USB connector died after plethora of disconnections/reconnections between stations and while waiting for a magnet socket, I had to build a ps2/usb adapter

A nice little buddy too bad it is staggered :/ Good point is the caps are DCS like, all the same profile, so you can reorder them to your liking, I found the clunkiness of the space bar horrible though. Won't stay too long on it hopefully.

ohaimark · 01 Jul 2016, 22:36

Uhhh... I think I'll keep the IBM M15. Not sure why I'd scavenge its caps!

The Kinesis will get a test run with my old man, who likes ergos. If he isn't interested I'll sell it.

The other mechanical keyboards will be sold; the rubber domes will be recycled.

XMIT · 01 Jul 2016, 23:49

I think he is confusing M13 (white-on-black Model M) with M15 (split ergo Model M, really more a Model M2).

mecano · 02 Jul 2016, 00:14

XMIT you are being kind to me it was more a neuronal typo, I red M15 and thought membrane, I guess I still can't believe they made ergo foldable buckling spring keyboards.
Oh there was a Kinesis too, now I see it on top of the M15, quiet a batch you caught.

Findecanor · 02 Jul 2016, 13:18

Well, both IBMs are buckling spring over membrane keyboards.

The ergo above the Industrial Model M looks like an Addison Reveal, which could have salmon Alps.
Also, an AEKII, could be a couple of Dell QuietKeys, three MS ergo. The one at the bottom left looks familiar as well, but I can't remember...
Not a bad haul. Not bad at all.

mecano · 05 Jul 2016, 15:01

Oh goosegash! Thanks for the precision Findecanor

derzemel · 08 Jul 2016, 12:11

Mionix Naos 7000 mouse. Very very comfortable for my big hands

shreebles · 08 Jul 2016, 12:59

I have a Mionix Castor that I don't need, barely used, let me know if you might be interested in extending your collection

However if you buy a CTC printer you WILL need this

This damn car is killing my keyboard funds

Hah

No, thank you. I bought the Naos though only for the ergonomics :-p

Nice one dude, got any plans for it or is it just a donor?

edit - If it's the same as mine, it'll have MX Clears.

scottc · 09 Jul 2016, 16:25

Clears too! I'm honestly not sure. The laptop itself is totally fucked, but the keyboard is perfect - really pristine. I'm going to try to reverse engineer the connector for rows and columns to be hooked up to a controller, I think!
