it's a fantastic deal for people wanting to buy these old fashioned keyboards. But when are they going to come out with something more modern and attractive? (I am fantasizing again of a buckling spring matrix keyboard.)

Hopefully we will be a few weeks away from pre/ordering the Unicomp 83.

I wonder how they can get 83 from 87. It sounds like a joke. Even if most gamers don't like winkey and appskey, unicomp needs to standardize with modern mass market requirements (at most use DIP switches to disable winkey). So what's the final missing key? Scroll lock?

Ah yes, their annual cyber Monday free shipping.  I have ordered gift boards the past two years from this.

I'm hoping my model f replacement keys and 103 key classic will be ordered on this day.

Edit, they were!
