It's not really worth more than $50-60 since it's serial and based on some past sales. Could be a fund conversion project for someone.

While decent looking I don't think I could get used to the layout?
-
The layout could be modded (I think) to be more like ansi. With that being said a lot of people use these for parts boards. I doubt I will get this as I don't like ebay, but I am in the market for one. I think the keyboards have some charm to them. Also I want the solenoid from it :D.

Planning on putting the solenoid in your F 107? I have a solenoid I am going to try that with, but I haven't gotten around to seeing if it will actually fit without modifying the case. I'm sure space can be made if needed, so will cross that bridge when I come to it. Need to get a solenoid driver first though.

Xwhatsit has made a solenoid driver for these as well.

thats my plan. I only am taking an educated guess as I have never seen a solenoid irl but I think it will fit.

Ended today. Was on the winning bid until someone sniped mine literally in the last 20 seconds. Oh, well.
