Got a free old keyboard
« on: Tue, 31 January 2012, 16:28:13 »
Somebody at work just dropped off an old terminal keyboard for me. I popped off a key and woohoo!! it's a Cherry black. Will be looking for someone to mod it to  USB. Enjoy the pics...

There's an old keyboard at work I want to try to pop a key off of, but I'm afraid my supervisor will notice and ask why I'm destroying company property...

Popping a key off and putting it back is not destroying company property. Especially if they don't see it :spy:

Thanks, (wyse) guys. I will give it a bath. Sixty is a little too far. I need someone in the US to mod it to USB. PM me with a price.
