Great/Interesting Finds

[Elrick]

I bought one of these and it's pretty nice. If anyone here buys one make sure to tell the guy to ship it in an additional box.

ALWAYS have to let the seller know that very important shipping note. TO always ship any keyboard inside a bigger, stronger cardboard box with loads of bubble-wrap.

I even let them know that I would be happy to pay extra for that style of shipping, especially where the sold item has to travel (Satan's Retreat) .

This isn't bad for an AT101 with looks like modded with nice Tai Hao Dolch Alps Doubleshots. I personally think black ALPS are one of the more under rated ALPS switches out there: https://www.ebay.com/itm/323224467715

Easy to mod to linear by removing the tactile leaf as the seller hints at in their description.

Heres an IBM 3479 TKL that looks like it's in good condition

Should be Alps plate spring right?

[Blaise170]

Yeah should be, but it's too expensive.

[chip chop]

I dont think its the Plate Spring Version, the Model number on the listing is a mismatch and the bottom row keys are not triple shot (with green) like the 5576-03 ALPS version.

Not a bad price for an XT, looks like it'll need some love though.

Heads up, that's a bid post so it could be expensive whiten the 6 days the auction runs.

I think all silver/square label Ms have their badge on the right. Might be wrong on that, though.

I'll have to check mine tonight, I don't recall seeing one on the right side...... I could definitely be completely wrong though lol.

Also I read the posting details and it was made for a Unix machine. Pretty cool though, I haven't seen one of these before.

This keyboard is for the IBM RT. It has a 6 hole plug that predates the PS/2.

Thanks,

Oak. Several of these from the same seller have come up recently, and more info is available if you scroll back in this thread a bit.

[seebart]

The Indy F has OAK FTM switches NOT capacitive buckling spring.

Model M with badge one the RIGHT side

Most Model M (if not all?) with a square badge have it on the right side.

Nah, just checked mine and almost all are on the left. I have one with an XT connector (same as on F 122) that has it on the right but that's the only one I saw looking at around 15. A couple M 122's have it on the right though.

[j0d1]

I am talking about models Ms, not models Fs. Which Model M part number do you have with a square badge on the left?

Found a component supplier that has 'SKCMAT' (part number for SKCM Green!!) listed. Could this be a good deal?
