Greetings!
« on: Thu, 19 October 2017, 12:29:22 »
Hi everyone, I've been lurking these forums for about 4(?) months and, now that I finally bought my own model m, figured I should actually join! So, here I am :)
I've used the same old microsoft basic keyboard 1.0a pretty much my whole life contently up until recently, so I can't wait for something new!
My model m is supposed to arrive next week  ;D

Welcome!  Great choice of board, but I may be a bit biased. ;)

Couldn't agree more! The world of IBM really is a rabbit hole, I've already got a Pingmaster too!

It's not much of a rabbithole if you stick to the basics--M, F, XT, SSK, Industrial.  It's those unique and oddball ones that will suck your wallet dry, lol.

No worries, I've already started hunting for a 5556-004 multi station board and a JX professional  ;) Both, it seems, are hopelessly impossible to find.
