Wasn't this posted in some other thread already? I could be mistaken, but I though it was a GH forum member who made it.
IBM Model F XT + Soarer's USB Converter || Cherry G80-3000/Clears

The storage list:
IBM Model F AT || Cherry G80-3000/Blues || Compaq MX11800 (Cherry brown, bizarre layout) || IBM KB-8923 (model M-style RD) || G81-3010 Hxx || BTC 5100C || G81-3000 Sxx || Atari keyboard (?)


Currently ignored by: nobody?

Yeah, that was sarcasm on my part. I knew it was you, though I didn't look at the link, since I'd already seen the video.
