model f xts of interest to the population
« on: Fri, 20 December 2013, 05:11:32 »
OK here are a couple that are worth thinking about:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-1501100-83-Key-Vintage-AT-XT-Clicky-Keyboard/201003079529?_trksid=p5713.m2061&_trkparms=aid%3D333008%26algo%3DRIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D358%26meid%3D3529415654352865095%26pid%3D100041%26prg%3D1188%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D9%26sd%3D321268058073%26

under $27 shipped, comes with (shabby looking but original) box

Nearly $60 shipped, but comes with custom covers for the plug and the keyboard. Looks darn good. I wish I had one myself!
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

don't worry, all good geekhackers own teensies (or biphiphanies). If you're not owning one, you're a naughty geekhacker and should get coal-black blank keycaps for your Christmas stocking.

You can get hardware that runs soarer's converter code for like $5, last time I checked.

It doesn't have to be a teensy.

Someone told me you were giving out coal black blanks? Are these PBT or ABS?

j/k :)
