Thanks for getting the picture of the back, E TwentyNine. So it seems legit, and is probably much rarer than any other Model M variant. It should make a nice collector's item for someone.
Thats what I thought when I bought it. Thanks for the find Techno Trousers
You do realize we're going to expect an analysis of this thing once you get it?
Yesterday I got the Model M 1397771 that I recently acquired from the post office. Upon initial inspection I am quite sure that the fat-ass ENTER-key is genuine and the keyboard has not been tampered with:
- the keyboard sandwich has not been opened i.e.: not bolt modded, all (most of them anyway) rivets are intact
- the barrel where the \ and | key on the US-ANSI layout would be has no spring
- the barrel where the # key on the German-ISO layout would be has no spring
The fat-ass ENTER-key looks like a combination of ANSI and ISO Model M ENTER-key
