WTB: dirt cheap (preferably as close to free as possible)Terminal (RJ45) Model M
« on: Fri, 25 October 2013, 14:07:43 »
Just for LOL's I want to acquire an unloved dirty ass terminal (rj45) model-m to bring back from the grave.

steps:
1) acquire terminal m - as cheap as possible.  (maybe free?)
2) figure out how to build a soarer box to verify it works
3) if nasty ugly dirty, clean it all up and make it look brand new
4) if it's a 122 - figure out how to ANSI it.
5) figure out how to bolt mod it and do it
6) post pics from the whole affair

What you got mang?

I will sell you one for $5 + shipping. It is a 1994 Lexmark, if I remember, and I harvested caps and inserts but all the stems are there.

It works properly and looks to be pretty fresh, so the springs should be good. Good spare parts was what I was keeping it for.

Remember, these do not have LEDs.

“All the powers of government, legislative, executive, and judiciary, result to the legislative body. The concentrating of these in the same hands, is precisely the definition of despotic government. An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one .... in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” — Thomas Jefferson, commentary on Federalist 48

That board isn't crappy enough for my liking.

The idea is to rescue Terminal M's with a high risk of ending up in a landfill.
