Some of you folks definitely want a 1390120 and bolt modding sounds great. That is one CLEAN keyboard.

Since I am not Prdlm, I feel perfectly entitled to post his ebay listing here. I have no financial ties to prdlm and have never received any favors or benefits from him before.

The only thing I disagree with him is about the 'pesky' LEDs. They happen to be very useful.  )

Thanks for the free promotion.  Berserkfan and I have no secret agreement.

Maybe I should change my ebay username.  My footprint around the Internet is too obvious.

Also, I am typing on the keyboard right now, just to make sure that everything works good with extended use.  Everything is working great.

I standby my statement about LED's.  They clog up the internal space.  And I prefer the ambiguity of not knowing caps lock is on or off.  What a thrill!

Oh, and funny story.  I had a dream last night about this keyboard.  First one of the inner clips cracked and broke off.  I got mad because then I would have to get a new case.  So I started taking it all apart.  Then the whole case broke in half!  Dammit!  In the dream, I fell into a deep funk.

I woke up with the assurance that the keyboard is safe and sound on my desk.

But there is too much internal space! In any case I find it extremely annoying when I am trying to type a password and get it wrong thanks to caps. Also, I have my numpad set to macro keys, so I need to have numlock trigger the numpad.

But that said, this particular serial number has such a rep; I'm sure somebody wants it bad!
