Title: Crap Keyboard for Crap Price
Post by: berserkfan on Sat, 11 January 2014, 11:08:58

I'm feeling antsy, as I haven't found any good deals recently. So here's one not good deal that nonetheless is very amusing to look at.  Sooner or later the mods will move this thread.

And if that isn't enough for you... how about an Arabic MSX 230 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/MSX-230-Arabic-Sakhr-Computer-8-Arabic-Cartridges-/281223634413?pt=US_Vintage_Computers_Mainframes&hash=item417a3c1ded) system for $500?

HA, if you bought it, homeland security will probably want to know if you've been radicalized online.

Seriously, with all that spying going on...

SpamRay, I like this one too. But you gotta fit my theme, respect the OP, ok?

It says Crap Keyboard for Crap Price. I think that portable computer isn't crap enough. Shoo! Go find us something crap. Maybe a PcJr or one of those disgusting early chiclets for $500 BIN.

That is a keyboard?

But that said, an awesome find. The garbage people will pay for something that is obsolete, was not popular, and pretty all-round crap... I think Mandolin crystals may be inside to justify the price.
