[ebay] Commodore 64 keyboards
« on: Thu, 06 June 2013, 07:45:48 »
Someone on eBay is selling job lots of Commodore 64 keyboards, four keyboards for $29.00.  This are at least three lots available.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of-4-Commodore-64-Keyboards-Untested-Storage-Locker-Find-Lot-1-/261226540676

Quite a deal if anyone is looking for interesting project keycaps!

The seller also has other lots listed. In this lot there is a keyboard with white and a keyboard with yellow caps.

Neither. But recently someone on DT did a project where he made plastic inserts to convert the caps to MX. Then he modded the commodore keyboard itself to MX. Was an awesome project.

I would love to see this project - do you still have the link?
