WTB/WTT: Monterey blue switch kb
« on: Sun, 02 September 2012, 14:30:47 »
I am looking to buy (or trade for) a good condition keyboard with monterey blues (e.g. siig minitouch or chicony kb-5181...but will consider other kbs too).  I can offer my IBM Model F XT (modded to USB and completely compatible with modern computers) as a trade.  I can also do straight cash if you prefer. 

Let me know!

Any interest in this?

If you live in AZ you can try my keyboards. I usually keep plenty of different ALPS and MX and buckling springs.

Wicked!

If only you could swap out for the ANSI Enter and Backslash ......

I believe I have a Chicony KB-5181, if the offer from Magna224 falls through.

UPDATE -- I do, but the Enter key seems to have a broken or missing stabilizer (haven't popped off the cap -- but the key usually doesn't bounce back after use).

That's a bummer....enter key is kinda important.
