Title: IBM Model M Red Esc Key Cap
Post by: popol on Thu, 27 October 2011, 04:31:55

Hi,
I would like to get a red esc for my IBM model M (or at least the 2nd layer).
Don't know where to find that kind of colored modifier keycaps.
Thanks in advance for your help :)

Unicomp sells colored M-compatible keycaps:

They don't have every key in every color but I'm sure they have red Escape.

My model M is a model with the keycaps in 2 parts. Are the unicomp compatible?

@popol - Not sure if you found what you wanted. In case you haven't got a red Esc yet, kinkng might be able to help you. One reason why you might not want to buy from Unicomp is that they require a $10 minimum purchase. That's not a problem for most people.
