Post by: Photoelectric on Sun, 06 October 2013, 22:38:00
New listing:

Industrial M13

OLD:
I don't know what's happening, but there are 3 M's in industrial gray cases listed today.  Not exactly cheap, so I can't call them "good deals", but perhaps the $200 one could be a good find for someone.

The link on top seems like a really good deal. Especially since you're getting a SDL to USB which typically sells for $30 alone

I've been hunting for an SSK so any new stuff that pops up, I see quickly.  Alas! 

What about M13s?  The trackpad function makes them interesting or?

P.S.: there's a black M13 as well:

Grabbed this. With the USB cable it's a not a bad price. At least that's what I told myself.

considering that cable goes for 40 bucks, I think you did good :)

Thanks. :) I've had my one Model M for a while. But I recently got a few Model Ms & Model Fs for cheap. I think it awakened some need for more buckling spring in my life.
