IBM 1391240 RARE VINTAGE CLICKY MODEL M KEYBOARD WITH PS/2 CABLE WITH WARRANTY (eBay)
It's $275 BIN/OBO, so I'm not suggesting anyone rush over to buy this—but it is sufficiently unusual that I thought I'd post about it.
This p/n isn't in Wikipedia's or Deskthority's Model M lists. There are no references to it on DT or the general Web (that I could find). There's only one brief reference to it
here on GH: Someone found one last year and no one knew anything about it.
It looks like a 1390131, except that:
- The Esc key says Esc / Reset.
- The silver logo badge has a small "T" in its lower right corner. (For "terminal"? Anyone ever see that?)
What's more, it looks either unused or restored. (The feet aren't even dirty; I don't know about you, but that's the first thing I check... If it's the same board the GH member posted, I'd assume they knew how to clean it up.)
Isn't it remarkable that unseen Model M p/n's can still be appearing? (I'm adding it to WP now, so the entry you see will be a new one.)
