IBM Model F 122(124) key detachable cable mod
« on: Fri, 26 February 2016, 05:59:14 »
Here's some pictures of my modded IBM model F 122 key keyboard. I have added detachable cable to it and two extra keys to numpad.

Detachable cable was done by adding mini usb extension cable inside the keyboard.

I have thought about doing the cable extension myself, but never got around to it.

My numpad is important and I don't want to change it, but I LOVE those division sign and "x" caps instead of slash and asterisk!
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."
