For € 13 it wont disappoint. The switch is most probably one of these:

That's a Micro Switch Hall Effect keyboard BTW, pretty sweet.

Yes, and that's why someone should convince him to grab the complete boards instead of pulling the key caps and trashing the rest.

The caps are goregous on this one! And the whole board is something special.

Seebart, sometimes you can apply 5 peers worth of pressure -- you have some serious willpower. It's quite impressive.

:lol:

I think we can "translate" that into...seebart is slowly becoming a grumpy old man (who spends a lot of time here to get away from real life). As long as I'm not "stepping on anyone's toes" right? I've gone overboard a couple of times, that Ander thing was retarded on my behalf.

Nah. You aren't even grumpy (at least, not most of the time). You're simply opinionated, which I can respect.

In a future torn by war, our only form of currency is obsolete keyboards. The Great Finds threads becomes a battlefield, frequented by the world's foremost businessmen and most shrewd investigators.

Dude, it's THE BEST smiley in the world. His name is Green, and he's perfect for almost every occasion. I've been using him for years.

Actually, the keycaps are mediocre at best (that's generous). However, the design is great and the switches can be decent, depending on their condition.

If you got it, and don't plan on keeping it, drop shreebles a pm.

Touchstone 2 Rapid Data Controller? What IS that thing? Google is turning up absolutely nothing, and it just kind of looks like it might be hiding a surprise under there. I kinda want to buy it just to pull a cap and dicument it on the wiki.

I picked up that "Old Logo" Dell AT101 listed a few days ago for $39 shipped, which I think is pretty good. Nobody was biting so I made an offer. Yellowing is always a little irksome but it's hard to find these unyellowed. I think it'll go in my permanent collection alongside my AT101 with salmon Alps.

I also received my Focus FK-2001 with blue Alps that I mentioned a little while ago. It's even better than I expected, almost new condition. I will make a new thread soon with a gratuitous number of glamour shots.
