ooh so tempting, love the extras it comes with.

This one is back up for sale.

Presumably, somebody bid $99 then reneged on the deal.

$100 is probably a fair price, $200 is not.

white complicated alps I assume?

[fohat.digs]

That would be my guess, with the flip lid.

I think that the oldest models (no flip) had the blues.

wouldn't this one be a newer one with windows keys?

very good piece of info there bro about the flippys having blues- was not aware of that.

not to be ignorant, but i don't recall ever seeing one with a lid............. kind of like a focus then?

[fohat.digs]

Wait, stop.

I was not referring to a "lid" as in cover, I just meant the little trap door at the upper left for the DIP switches.

Also, the trap door is not an indicator for the switch type, but I think that the earliest ones did not have it, and might be blues, while the later ones did, and were all or mostly whites.

Somebody that knows, like didjamatic, should weigh in here. I have had them with and without the trap doors, and all of mine were white.

gotcha........

makes sense
