Discontinued Unicomp Space Saving Keyboard

Unicomp M 98U0150

I offered $40 and the seller accepted.  Not a bad deal considering the free shipping.   One left.   There were 4 originally.

No longer available from Unicomp until they start producing the much anticipated buckling spring version.

I remember this seller!

Distinctive warning:


I always read that as Missouri not Money Order.  Or "No Mo Nigerians".



Have you purchased from this seller?   Not the best feedback rating.....

No but it should be  OK.  I find that "tested" in Ebay jargon means very little.  Sometimes the trackpoint goes wonky on these.


I have an "in" if this puppy needs repairing  :)   I probably would have preferred the non-trackpoint version.

Nice.  You got me beat by $10.  I should have offered less.

$40 for an M4-1? Meh... BON usually sells these things for about $25-30. They're not worth much more than that.

Didn't know that.   Figured that Unicomp sold these for $99, so $40 shipped seemed like a good deal.   Plus that 8% Bing cashback helps.  Plus there hasn't been much to buy for the past few days.   :)

$99 is probably because some company needs them and Unicomp has a limited stock of parts... They are worth nowhere near that, especially given that there was a NIB IBM one going for about $25 the other day.

I bought most of my NIB M4-1's for around $35.  That doesn't mean that I would consider a higher price unreasonable...for me, I accumulated many, so held out for good deals.

Is this UNICOMP M 98U0150 TrackPoint PS/2 keyboard/mouse Combo a buckling spring? It looks scissors to me.
I trolled Geekhack and all I got was an eponymous SPOS.

Rubber sleeves.

Think stiff, firm scissor switches.
