Wow.  You don't see that very often.  I sure hope someone here snatches it up.  :)

I've been watching that and I was going to buy it if someone - anyone wanted my Filco. But alas, no one does. Another $165 headed for the dumpster.

EDIT: Don't take this literally, I only wanted to sell the Filco to buy a different keyboard. The Filco is really nice, I just wish it had the blues.

I write better on ballsy loud ass Alps switches than anything else. The Japanese style switches are great for homework and journalistic stuff, the Model M is the best for noir and Alps whites (or blacks) are the shisnit for everything else.

I tend to go through holy grails, if you haven't noticed yet. That's why some days I switch keyboards four times.
