Title: Just to piss off Fohat... Logic Controls
Post by: berserkfan on Mon, 03 November 2014, 13:33:04
10 lots of 3 keyboards each, at a lower price than what fohat was asking for his...

Even a matrix keyboard fan like me isn't buying. I can't believe they used these monsters in the Detroit public school system.

These metal domes are all but indestructible.

I thought that I had eventually lowered my price to $35 + shipping, and mine is in pristine condition.

Gotta love the description of the condition:
“Normal wear & tear from being used in the Detroit Public School System”

Non Americans who see this will be wondering if keyboards have bullet holes in them.

Probably not. Schools in Detroit have metal detectors on all entrances.

I guess I had better list my keyboard over at Deskthority.

Nobody here appreciates a warhorse that could reduce a Model F to tatters.

Judging from your spelling you must have attended such a scool...  :))

We do, we just don't know how to make it work! Not as if you managed to get yours working, and I have lower, far lower technical skills than you!
