Title: Keyboard links/resources
Post by: iMav on Tue, 21 August 2007, 01:39:12: Post your favorite keyboard vendors, fan sites, care-and-feeding guides, etc in this thread.

Vendors
Das Keyboard (http://www.daskeyboard.com) - The blank keytop keyboard that seems to be all the rave lately. These use Cherry's gold-plated mechanical switches. Dubbed "the keyboard that clicks".

Unicomp Keyboard Products (http://www.pckeyboard.com) - The supposed successor to the IBM/Lexmark keyboard kings. According to their website, they purchased Lexmark's keyboard technology from them in 1996.

Clicky Keyboards (http://www.clickykeyboard.com) - THE place to get the real deal. Great source for all things Model M. (it's where I purchased my beloved 84-key space saver)

PFU Systems (http://pfuca-store.stores.yahoo.net) - Home of the legendary Happy Hacking line of keyboards. I purchased my Happy Hacking Keyboard Professional here...arguably (by ME) the best keyboard in existence.

Fan sites/blogs
ModelM.org (http://www.modelm.org) - TYPE HARD OR GO HOME. Model M fan site. Some links appear to be broken (forum down) and I wasn't able to register my beloved spacesaver here, but I'm going to keep checking this site in the hopes that it sees a revival. :)

Care and Feeding of an IBM Model M (http://www.preater.com/modelm) - Title says it all. Good resource for disassembling and cleaning your Model M.

IBM Model M USB upgrade (http://zevv.nl/experiments/ibm-usb) - USB-i-fy your Model M!
