Neat, thanks for the heads-up :)

A shame if he is going to finish his business though.

Nice interview :) . I only ever bought a cable from him, but I know his reputation.

Cleaning and refurbishing Model M's is a mostly thankless job in which people are not willing to pay a decent price for your labor, so I can see why he would think about getting out of it.

Especially if the business just happened as a side-effect of something else.
