Good luck fohat
« on: Tue, 01 October 2013, 16:05:47 »
Fohat.digs has placed his stealth modded Model F 122 on ebay after he was unable to sell it on geekhack.

Good luck! I"ve always thought that most people on this forum (including me even though I am unsuccessful) prefer to mod our own keyboards, but on ebay most are normal retail people not keyboard geeks. Something already in guaranteed working, perfect condition, attractively modded, should get sold fast!
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

I saw it!  Immediately recognized it must be his by the painted plate in one of the photos :D

Good luck!!

"Heavily modified" :))

GLWS!
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

chopped by 30% and painted black
Citizens United violates the essence of what made America a great country in its political system. Now it’s just an oligarchy, with unlimited political bribery being the essence of getting the nominations for president or to elect the president.
So now we’ve just seen a complete subversion of our political system as a payoff to major contributors, who want and expect and sometimes get favors for themselves after the election’s over.”
- Jimmy Carter 2015

not only that; my worst sin was (once again) forgetting to include the link again for what must be the fifth or sixth time! But since somebody did, I won't bother to modify OP
