hmmmm, considering that you don't have to deal with the rest of the rig, i guess it is not all that bad...for those who really want one..

If you want it, might as well hit BIN. They don't really seem interested in taking a lower amount.

If you want one, you might as well buy the actual Finisar GT that's sitting on there.

That dude wants like 800 bucks for the whole thing. So after I (and I'm sure some of you) harassed him about buying the keyboard he figured he could make an easy hundred bucks. 110 bucks... That is such bs. These are so overvalued on ebay.

Hmn, I don't think the P11 has an MX keyboard.
Yes they got overpriced, mostly due to us (collectors) being over enthusiastic about them.

It's a nice board. But that's a lot. Is it hard to get working with ps/2 or USB controller?

Think you can wire it to work with PS/2. Bini is selling some refitted mx1800 and dolch board is one of the internal he uses.

Yeah they are just AT/PS2 with a non standard RJ11 connector as far as I have seen. I think there was a model or 2 that had a regular AT din5 instead of the RJ. Should just be a simple cable swap. Some make a little adapter so they can use it on both ps2 and the luggable.

With a little soldering experience it's a pretty easy swap. You can put the innards into a G81 case or keep it in the original case.

$110 + $30 is too expensive.  Please exercise self control.  The right price will come.

Caps are cool, but it is a really nice blues board. If I ever manage to get one, I will keep it intact, but perhaps put it in a regular 1800 body.

Well at least it went for cheaper, even if I didn't get it, as that helps lower the median price in the future for the next listings for those sellers that look.

You're welcome...  I have been working him with low-ball offers to loosen him up.  Before I got to him with my next offer you stole this!  Yes, I am whining.  But it looked like the low-ball offers might have worked out for someone.  Just not me.  :jaw:   I was hitting him with $20.00...  Then $25...  You get the idea.

It helps that the keycaps are facing the LCD screen, closed, when not in use.

Might as well pay the few extra dollars for one of the whole machines. At least it might be amusing to play with. Oh, and I love that $1,250 one that is from NASA supposedly LOL.
