Got mine today. One of the keyboard is in crappy condition. The escape button was damaged... Oh well... The other keyboard works fine though, but it's not in the best shape.

I'm not liking the switches very much, but maybe they could be old and worn?
I might try to clean some of the switches... or maybe that's just how black alps feel.

If you need a few replacement keys, send me a pre-stamped, self-addressed small padded envelope and I'll send them to you for free. I've got a few spare AT101Ws (in addition to the five in my sig).

I shouldn't have bought these in the first place.. :( The key is fine, but the mechanism wasn't working. The key wouldn't go back up unless you pull on it. It looks like there are some springs missing or something. Do you have any that's in good condition? I'm just gonna give the keyboards I got to my brother and dad so they could try using mechanical keyboards. I would like a back up keyboard to my model m, even though I doubt it's ever gonna break, haha.
