IBM Model M with RJ45 $21 shipped, maybe less
« on: Mon, 08 July 2013, 11:12:12 »
http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-Model-M-Vintage-Clicky-Keyboard-P-N-1392595-w-RJ45-Connector-/271220957108?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item3f26075fb4

I'm not sure how great of a deal it is, but they're supposed to be fully functioning and most Model Ms I've seen, even those with an RJ45, seem to go for more.  Since it's a Buy It Now Auction that you can make an offer on, you might be able to get it for less than $20 shipped.

Worth it for the parts, especially if you are doing a chop job to acquire a smaller footprint.
"However, my view has changed in recent days. Trump’s behavior is so bizarre, so unhinged, and so counter to his short-term interests that the most likely explanation for his actions is that Trump either believes or knows that he is mentioned in the Epstein files in ways that are even more damaging than the blowback he is getting for not releasing the files."

I was thinking about getting a couple of these for the caps, but they're non standard... Some kind of POSt layout, I guess.

I didn't see it because you posted it last month and it was buried on page three.  I stumbled across it and figured it was worth posting.

If anyone here got these, could you check if they use wire or in-barrel stabs?
