Hello, from the MP3 Encoder.
« on: Thu, 14 February 2013, 00:11:47 »
Hello, I'm Compgeke the lame (or Compgeke the MP3 Encoder). I come in peace and pieces, with complete and incomplete keyboards (mostly IBM). Of the keyboards I have I own 3278 terminal keyboards, 3178 terminal keyboards, Model F terminal keyboards, Model M terminal keyboards, XT\PC Model F keyboards, Model F AT keyboards and a couple Model Ms.

I do hope to find information on cleaning these (and I mean dust cleaning, some of these came out of a barn), which I'll do some searching for after this and I also hope to make one of the converters to use a Model F Terminal keyboard on a PC using a Teensy 2.0, which I already know is possible as I've seen what it looks like...and it connected to an iPad.

Welcome to WalletHack: where all your IBMs are belong to us. Prepare to be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

Anyways, lots of friendly people here who can CERTAINLY help you clean those boards and make the Teensey converter. Ask any question about keyboards, and you will get an answer.

Welcome to Geekhack!

Another IBM enthusiast - we have a few of those around here :)

Paging fohat.digs to assist with your queries ...

(or maybe just post in the keyboards section, for cleaning suggestions)
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
