IBM Model F AT restoration
« on: Fri, 23 February 2018, 06:41:58 »
There are many threads but most of them are very old and miss many pictures.

I'm going to do a IBM Model F AT restoration, with conversion to ISO, and, at the end, a spacebar mod. Is there any thread that I could follow? Thanks

I did a thread, and in my first post I link to an earlier thread as well.

With the link you already have I think that's plenty of examples, no?

If the contacts are set up for an ISO Enter, it should be no different from the other varieties of mods. I don't have an open AT but you could tell by looking at it for a few seconds.

I have several ISO Enters and so do a lot of other people, probably, but international shipping is slow and expensive.

"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. 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."
