WTF label are you talking about? It has a BAR CODE label!

You mean the badge for the front?

Trump’s behavior is so bizarre, so unhinged, and so counter to his short-term interests that the most likely explanation for his actions is that Trump either believes or knows that he is mentioned in the Epstein files in ways that are even more damaging than the blowback he is getting for not releasing the files."

I sure hope its not someone who bought the industrial case from webwit in Deskthority recently and then modded a Model M and pretend its Industrial. Coz that case from webwit does not ha a badge too. That would be a despicable thing to do.

You can have one made. I can't remember where, but people here have had it done before.

I sure hope its not someone who bought the industrial case from webwit in Deskthority recently and then modded a Model M and pretend its Industrial. Coz that case from webwit does not ha a badge too. That would be a despicable thing to do.

Looking at the barcode label, it looks fine to me. It's not peeled off of a non-industrial because the model number is correct. And it's hard to tell, but it appears to have the correct printing, including the maroon IBM logo and information (although the colors are off in the picture).

A while back, I remember seeing a NIB one (albeit a later model) without the badge. Some of them just don't appear to have been given badges. The other unlikely alternative is that it fell off. Given the condition, I find it very unlikely.
