...and Print Screen, Scroll Lock, and Pause/Break keycaps, beige/grey color scheme.

Was inspired by recent discussions to give PBTs a try on a good keyboard, and this is all I'm missing to put together a whole set.  The old school color scheme doesn't bother me, the lasered lettering doesn't bother me, but having missing keycaps does :)  (everything that I have was harvested from POS boards, so these are missing.  I have the equivalents in German, not sure which is worse, a mix of different keycaps or a mix of German and English...)

I could trade either a complete German set (looks like it was from a winkeyless board with offset caps lock) minus the F-key row; alternately, a whole baggie full of random US ANSI and ISO PBTs.  All old school beige/grey.  Also have random Wyse keys to trade or even complete Rawko boards (see sig)

Edit:  I stole the arrow keys from the German set as well; sorry, I don't have those either.

Edit2: I found another set of arrow keys, must have come off of one of the really crappy G81 boards I shot in the head a while back.  Still need the 9 keys above them.  Using relegendables as a placeholder, but that annoys me.

thanks!

I haven't any kind of mental image of what a Gateway 2000 keyboard looks like... can you post a pic?

What Wyse keys in particular are you looking for, or are you just hoarding them? :)

Ok I have some that I cleaned and others that still need to be cleaned as they are salvage. not all of the keycaps work because of the weird stabilizers but whatever is in the picture I can send to you

cleaned ones

Yeah the wyse keys are my favorite double shots and I am trying to piece together a set or at least get some cool keycaps !

those look nice but they don't look like they are the same color as the old Cherry keys :/  that would bother me...

I'll let you know when I'm done messing with Wyse stuff though.  I definitely have a full set of the white keys you could use on a tenkeyless, but the tilde is the wrong row and backslash is 1x.  Modifiers are all weird and mostly unusable, but cool looking...
