Great/Interesting Finds

Um, is this what I think it is?

Ahh, thought it was a rebranded Acer KB-101A, eh?

Yeah, because the FCC ID ends in KB101 and the manufacturer is Acer. I guess this is the non-A model then xD .

Shame, I'd have loved to have others try one out .

[E3E]

Haha, I didn't even notice the FCC ID. Looks like the non-A is really really not grade A like the real deal.

Another of these boring IBM Space Saver keyboards: http://www.ebay.com/itm/321946562010

[Halvar]

With "eraser nub"! Well that's handy -- so you don't have to open the keyboard when you need a rubber to erase something!

(It's actually not a half bad keyboard, but who buys a rubber dome keyboard that has been heavily used? Price is ridiculous.)

[photekq]

I've been considering this one for a while, but decided to pass on it.. Someone here should definitely buy it. Very good price.

That first image made me smile and mentally chuckle.

Damn cute technology, it thinks it's people.

Forget the cuteness.. Check the keycaps! Cherry doubleshots with those lovely sublegends.

Yeah, I noticed that! Those are REALLY nice key caps.

Why do UK ISO boards always have to be shiny?

Why do UK ISO boards always have to be shiny?

Because they are heavily used and are not dye-sub PBT? I'll show myslef out

"Postage to: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Japan, Australia"

LOL. How did Japan slip into the list?

[Muirium]

Indeed. They totally forgot Nigeria, Pakistan, Albania…

$2,250 OBO

[guk]

If he really sold that Minitouch Plus for 95$, I wouldn't even be surprised if he gets 2k for the Dario keyboard.

[scottc]

$95 for a BTC-5100?! WHAT?!

BTC 5100 (Siig Minitouch Plus) with BTC Slider-over-Dome-over-PCB Switches - NIB - the BEST rubber domes of all time, similar to Topre
[...]
Extremely rare. LAST ONE.

Apart from being utter bullshit, who would pay $95 for this?!?

[Chyros]

OK, let's try again xD . NIB blue Alps KeyTrak board:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-NOS-K ... O#viTabs_0

Hoping it goes to a good home!

EDIT: there's also a white Alps version. Both come included with AT adapter and blue cube btw.

[gogusrl]

might have to sell said home to get this one. covers all the keywords, it's gonna get plastered everywhere.

Yup. The seller knows he's onto gold, so he made sure everyone who's interested will find it. Still, I hope the winner is someone from here and that they love it as much as I love my KB101A!

Spanish, boxed (and expensive) g80-1000. The best keycaps.

http://www.ebay.es/itm/Boxed-PC-AT-Cher ... Sw5IJWc~6B

[gogusrl]

that's super cheap for what it offers. someone should grab it fast.

[ohaimark]

http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-Fluke-1720A-P ... 1828156693?

Looks like some cool cherry caps. Incompatible enter keys and whatnot, but still fun.

I'll be bidding on that Blue ALPS board. I want to try a trackball. It's going to get ugly, so wish me luck.

As far as I know, the integrated trackballs don't usually work on modern systems with these old boards, but I could be very very wrong.

Yeah, if someone paid $153 + shipping for an NTC 6151ER in shit condition, I'd not doubt that someone's going to pay a lot more for this guy, considering its condition and that it has a box.

But who knows, maybe not!

Thankfully not my cup of tea, so I won't go crazy over trying to get this. Though I did eye up webwit's Accodata Keycat when it was up for sale, but only because I had NO blue Alps boards and was desperate.

Needless to say, this is pretty cool nonetheless.

People usually go nuts over TA, don't they?

I'd love to see this retrobrighted, just to see how many people gasp and denounce the said retrobrighter's actions, haha.

OH THE PATINA! D:

[ohaimark]

Serial to USB adapters make those old trackballs rock and roll, from what I understand. (heh) Windows has a pretty good library of generic drivers.

Worst case scenario... I lose. -shrugs- At least the non-DT bidders will suffer.

I'm hoping that Christmas shopping has exhausted rival bidders' wallets.

Someone Spanish should get this quickly before I do..

[pcaro]

I have a similar one. And the keycaps are wonderfull. The price, not so good

The price is really good for a NIB Spanish doubleshot Cherry board. Also, it's from 1988, which is something you don't see too often - first year of 1000 series manufacture!
