Hi from oklahoma
« on: Sat, 14 May 2016, 19:20:56 »
New to the group. I'm jealous of your classifieds and talented members making incredible things. Happy to be here. I'm looking for a set of 1976 keycaps for my pok3r 60% if anyone has a set.

Welcome to Geekhack!

There's a drama or two going on in the classifieds most of the time, unfortunately.  But if you approach it with some realistic expectations of what you might or might not get, it's great!

Once you have 2 months membership and 25 posts you are welcome to open a WTB thread in case someone has a set to sell.
"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

As I'm sure you know, one of the most famous Broadway musicals of all time—well, except for all the time when there wasn't such a thing as Broadway yet—was Oklahoma. The lyrics and book to that legendary show were typed on a typewriter, which had a mechanical keyboard.

And now, here you are. It's practically cosmic.
