Title: Can Model M2 keycaps fit on old Model M ?
Post by: babuinix on Sun, 28 September 2014, 16:28:20

Simple question, anyone with both a Model M and a M2 can check if they keycaps are interchangeable?

M2 Keys seem lower fore sure but can they be used in original M?

Thx in advance.

No.

Big mistake by IBM.

Stems may "work" but heights are all wrong.
