I wonder if they'd ship if I asked them to send just the keyboard?

Also you gotta love the description.

in very good condition, no burning, no smoke but on screen shows just few green dots.

I'm going to start describing all my non-functioning items as "no burning, no smoke".

He's got a bid for the whole thing, so probably not.

I meant win whole thing -> get just keyboard shipped. Since I'm pretty sure the local pickup only is because the whole thing is huge & heavy.

Would be a shame to junk the computer just for the keyboard.... That's why vintage computer people hate us

Just a follow-up, this looks to be the hall effect version, not the beamspring. I believe neither is xwhatsit compatible unfortunately :(
