[SOLD] NIB Lexmark branded M-122s, $70 shipped

Lexmark NEW Computer Keyboard Model M C3229A PN1428260





Lexmark-branded M-102s are rare enough. This is only the 2nd time I've seen 122s for sale—and these are NIB, so they seemed worth bringing to your attention.

And because these are later-model terminal emulation boards, not plain terminal boards, they're PS/2 and can be used directly with modern PCs (straight to PS/2 or with an active USB converter).

In case you have trouble reading the listing (only the left half of it is appearing here in Chrome, so I had to Select All and paste it into an editor), here's the crucial line:

"Model M buckling spring keyboard new in original box with assorted new cables and 4 pin mini-din male connector."

The AC cables that were bundled with this board indicate it was part of a system package. (I have yet to see a keyboard that requires one.)

I've been looking for this style of keyboard. Too bad I somehow missed this post.

Also kinda rare to see lock lights on an M122.

Tbh though, although it's not as cool as the IBM logo, Lexmark's wasn't too shabby either.

I didn't even notice the lock lights

Hey, you're right! Could these be the only 122s with LEDs? I don't remember ever seeing them on others... Now I wish I'd gotten one.

Wonder why Lexmark included them? The terminal OSs always indicated lock status onscreen, didn't they? Wasn't that why 122s didn't need lights?
