[WTB/WTT] Filco Fullsize Tactile (104-key Brown)
« on: Thu, 22 November 2012, 10:28:51 »
Greetings!  I am looking for a Filco 104-key (M1 or M2) with Brown switches (a.k.a. "Tactile" in Filco naming convention.)  Keycaps are not important, unless they happen to be Cherry-profile PBT, in which case I am totally in.

But wait, you say.  There is one of those in your signature!  Yes.  That's the problem.

I had my better half try various keyboards so I could discover what switch/keyboard/keycap combo she liked.  Try #3 was my Filco Brown with thick Imsto PBT Cherry-profile keycaps.  Her fingers instantly fell in love with it, and I am pretty sure I will never get it back. :(

So, if you have or have seen an available Filco 104 Brown in white or black, please let me know!

Thanks very much and Happy Thanksgiving!

Sigh. Bought new MJ2 104 NKR from keyboardco.

Closing thread.
