Finally I get to show you an SSK! IBM probably never thought that these would become so popular decades later xD . Hope you enjoy the video! :)

And.... now i regret selling mine.

I sold mine some time back as I realized I just typed way slower with buckling springs and just way too loud for me. Must be cause I am a millennial but are these still as popular as they were a few years ago? There was a time where everyone seemed to be trying to get one

Another fantastic vid, thanks!

Great review, as usual :)
Coincidentally I pulled one of mine out on the weekend. Great to use.
Mine both cost around $200, one is IBM the other is Lexmark.
I'd use it more often, but as I get up at 4:30am and check emails and stuff it would wake everyone else up :))
Is your desk quite thick? Mine isn't, and the sounds mine makes is a lot more hollow.

Odd - perhaps bolt-modding makes more of a difference than I suspected.
Mine are not (as far as I know), and don't need it, apart from a rattly Esc on the Lexmark. But on my cheap 1cm thick small wooden desk they both sound as hollow as anything.

Prettu sure I did a video where I compared typing sounds of bolt-modded v unmodded Ms - listen for yourself! :)
