Seems strange to announce what is about to be sniped by yourself.
I'm not upset at all about it in the least. I was thinking that if I did get it, I would have had to do some work on it any way and try my hand at changing the controller board. I could have leanred something in the process too. I seem to have a good controller board fromm the other keyboard I got last week. That one was a POS.
On the other hand, I have already gotten another model M for my wife. And, it's not a terminal model. I think I did fairly well to buy the one I did. For a total of $50.00 and $12.00 shipping, I got one that was made in 1987, has a PS2 connector on the detachable cable, a bolt job and all new springs. In fact, I just finished putting the order together and paid for it tonight. If everything goes right, I'll have it within a 5 to 7 days being shipped from North Cental California to Las Vegas. I probably could have gone cheaper, but my wife wanted something that was guaranteed to be perfect as soon as she plugs it in. The best way I could think of for that was to get one that was already modded. And, it was her money.
I'm planning on doing a comparison write-up as soon as I can test it. BTW too, I have a friend who just ordered a Customizer 101 and I'll be using it for a few days too. So maybe I'll have to do a real comparison of the three on side by side tests.
I just hope I can write it up as well as you all do here, namely Ripster and Kishy.
