WTB: dirt cheap (preferably as close to free as possible)Terminal (RJ45) Model M
« on: Fri, 25 October 2013, 14:07:43 »
Just for LOL's I want to acquire an unloved dirty ass terminal (rj45) model-m to bring back from the grave.

steps:
1) acquire terminal m - as cheap as possible.  (maybe free?)
2) figure out how to build a soarer box to verify it works
3) if nasty ugly dirty, clean it all up and make it look brand new
4) if it's a 122 - figure out how to ANSI it.
5) figure out how to bolt mod it and do it
6) post pics from the whole affair

What you got mang?

I will sell you one for $5 + shipping. It is a 1994 Lexmark, if I remember, and I harvested caps and inserts but all the stems are there.

It works properly and looks to be pretty fresh, so the springs should be good. Good spare parts was what I was keeping it for.

Remember, these do not have LEDs.

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."

That board isn't crappy enough for my liking.

The idea is to rescue Terminal M's with a high risk of ending up in a landfill.
