[ebay] IBM Keyboard
« on: Mon, 21 March 2016, 20:19:46 »

I honestly don't know much about ibm keyboards but I do know that they can be worth a lot. This one seems to be pretty clean in comparison to whats normally on ebay.

Nope, that's a Model M. You can tell by the plastic bottom--the F122 has a metal bottom.

This one seems to be pretty clean in comparison to whats normally on ebay.

Clean is hardly important because most users will be doing significant work on them anyway.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."
