IBM Model M with RJ45 $21 shipped, maybe less
« on: Mon, 08 July 2013, 11:12:12 »
http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-Model-M-Vintage-Clicky-Keyboard-P-N-1392595-w-RJ45-Connector-/271220957108?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item3f26075fb4

I'm not sure how great of a deal it is, but they're supposed to be fully functioning and most Model Ms I've seen, even those with an RJ45, seem to go for more.  Since it's a Buy It Now Auction that you can make an offer on, you might be able to get it for less than $20 shipped.

Worth it for the parts, especially if you are doing a chop job to acquire a smaller footprint.

I was thinking about getting a couple of these for the caps, but they're non standard... Some kind of POSt layout, I guess.

I didn't see it because you posted it last month and it was buried on page three.  I stumbled across it and figured it was worth posting.

If anyone here got these, could you check if they use wire or in-barrel stabs?
