…It was about ten minutes after I saw that my “ridiculous low-ball” Ebay bid for a branded battlecruiser had won. That said, it is way snappier (and louder) than any rubber dome I’ve ever used. It’s not a bad board at all, really, though the terminal scan code set it was flashed with means the converter is more or less mandatory, despite the board having a PS/2 connector.

    I always wanted a mech version but after I released it has no rollover I lost interest. Thanks for sharing though. You’re right I didn’t even know these were real.

      If you want it badly enough, there’s the pricy “New Model F” capacitive buckling spring boards, and they have all three Model M layouts.

        Ugh why did you tell me about this? You’re working for them aren’t you, you esoteric keyboard shill 😜

          lol, I have a lot of keyboards, many homemade, but I don’t think I’ve spent over a hundred bucks or so on any single one of them, and most are closer to half that. No Model F of any kind here, much less a new one.
