ibm model m original keycaps?
« on: Mon, 20 July 2015, 21:58:58 »
Anyone know a place selling keycaps for the Model M? I only need an f12 key and clickykeyboards won't process an order less then $10. Plus, the shipping charge for a single cap seemed high. I used them before when I had a bunch to replace, but it seems the f12 cap got lost in storage. I'd prefer original if possible.

You could also ask around the forum that's how I got mine.

Maybe eBay.

If the picture is up to date F12 is still available.
"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
