Unicomp Terminal Emulator Keyboard?
« on: Thu, 26 July 2012, 02:08:21 »

Found this ebay auction somewhat odd. They're very cheap. Maybe it's a great deal or maybe it's too good to be true. I am not sure.

$29 BIN with free shipping to boot.

Seems legit, these things are not desirable outside of a small circle of geekhackers and the like.  FWIW, I suspect that these may exist in rubber dome as well as buckling spring versions.  At least, I recently visited a Holland & Barrett shop (famed for their use of Unicomp keyboards) and saw a board like that but it didn't have the familiar click.

Thanks for telling us.

Otherwise, it is almost worth buying just for the clean fresh keys and springs.

"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink. During Obama’s term  the deficit was reduced by $900 Billion  before finally in 2015 the GOP managed to wrangle a “reconciliation” bill out of Obama where he again cut corporate taxes, as well as made permanent some of George W. Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

I asked, and was told the opposite. I also asked Unicomp directly and they weren't sure.

Go figure, I guess no-one knows.
