What are these...?
« on: Sun, 31 May 2009, 17:47:38 »
I was looking for a ModelM but came across these:
Dell AT102W
Keytronic KT2001PS2SV
DGC F7B032124

Does anyone knows anything about these keyboards?
I haven't seen them on pic or real life, could they be good?

The AT102W uses (real, complicated) black alps, it's a very nice keyboard. I don't know anything about the other two.

The Dells are quite popular around these parts (the 102W is the UK version, if you search for the AT101W you'll find a good deal of information). They use black Alps switches which are pretty nice, but I find them to be quite stiff so they wear my arm out after a while. That said, maybe I need to break my one in a bit more. (the keyboard, not my arm :D)

Thanks for the input, I e-mailed the seller and said I was intrested in the dell board. I'm willing to pay up to 20 USD. Lets see what he has to say.
I'm curious in the two other KB's, I hope I'll get a chance in handeling those other two.

We've got a UK AT102W on ebay US and a US AT101W on ebay UK? Did somebody forget to inform me about the international through the looking glass week?

That keytronic looks like the first Das... I'd say it's probably a rubber dome, with weighted keys in different spots.

I got a price for the DELL board, almost 4 USD. Is that to much? :D

Jump on it.  You won't find a better 'board for the price.  As a matter  of fact, of all the keyboards I have, the Dell is one of my favorites.

Nice find. I haven't been able to grab an Alps keyboard yet. I don't really know if I want to though, considering they're generally not very compact from what I've seen. Maybe I could use one at work, or my workshop when I eventually get that set up. Plenty of room there.
