I've got a broken Model M2 (bad caps), and I wanted to know what the key rollover is for it. Is it 2 like the regular Model M, or higher?
Thanks.

The M2 has buckling spring over membrane, just like the Model M. The springs/hammers are identical but the barrels are shorter, with shorter keycaps and the keys are all in one plane, not mounted on a curved backplate.

Aww that's a shame. I heard there's a mod to put some kind of copper sheet in the KB to make it NKRO? Are the Unicomps 2KRO as well?
-
Yes, Unicomps are 2KRO as well.
If you want NKRO in buckling spring, you need to go Model F.

What about this mod then, how do I perform that?

(It helps if you give a timestamp of when in the video they are discussing what you are referring to, especially when the video is an hour long.) There is a thread for this, but I was not aware anyone had completed the work. Will find and post.

This thread has some work on a custom Model M membrane that could incorporate diodes to allow for NKRO, around reply 87 or so.

It was supposed to be around 44:00 I think, the link worked for me and started at that time.
