Nice Model F... And those Northgates are quite reasonably priced. That's where Computer Lab should go when he gets his refund.

I found a few more keyboards and put up links to them.

I lost out on the plus, but got the Onmikey 102 + a Chicony w/ blue alps copies for 60 shipped.

Not a bad deal. Not the best, but I've always wanted to try an omnikey.

I considered bidding, but didn't. How are these different than the White clicky Alps in the Focus 2001?

I bidded on the Plus but was outbid.

These FreeGeek guys are in Portland, I'll have to check out their thrift store when I get some cash.

I kinda regret getting the Chicony cause I could have picked up a NIB one for the same price. I just plum forgot it was there.

Can't wait for my Omnikey 102 to arrive, I'm really curious about how "solid" it really is... and I sure hope it's not beat all to ****e.
