Post by: cactux on Wed, 27 July 2011, 08:30:45

I am in the process to get my frist IBM SSK MODEL M 1397681, and I am considering getting some nice lettered colorful keycaps. As far as I know there are 3  companies making custom keycaps for my future board. Which one do you recommend and why?

thx

As far as I know, only Fentek and Unicomp produce them. Unicomp is where I would go for a full set, or a decent selection of common customization options. Fentek seems to be more of a full custom shop, unless you want blank colored or clear.
