For someone wanting to take on Kishy's 122-key terminal mod, this would be the board to get.

I found it felt more like an M2 than an M, and IMO M2s feel dramatically different from Ms...

...and much, much crappier.

Same build as the rest of them, it ought to have M style insides, but the feel was just off on mine. Universal problem across the board so it wasn't a localized spill residue thing.

Well it would be nice to know whether or not that terminal keyboard works with a PC. If it doesn't, I don't want to spend $80 on it...

Certainly not worth shipping to Europe, unless you're in a hurry. Boards like that pop up on ebay.de once in a while and usually go for a few bucks.

I even got my new without box 1397000 for €25 on ebay.de. That was luck though.

Well this seller has another board I might want and the combined shipping would be $55. Still makes it kind of expensive at 65€ including shipping and customs.
