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.

"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

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?
