Found at work
« on: Thu, 17 November 2016, 10:27:56 »
So I work at a fairly large public university in a Library as an IT specialist. Our storage closet has some... older equipment and I wanted to share a recent find. I have no idea what it is other than it's IBM branded. Looks and sounds interesting though! It has that resounding "click, TANGGGG" sound after it's pressed and released.
Enjoy!

Actually, that is an XT and you will need a converter.

Building your own is much cheaper but Orihalcon's or Hagstroms are plug-and-play.
