I was actually incorrect about the model though, here's mine: it's an IBM M-SB9-6MD with a 3-4m cable Apple Extended Keyboard II with ALPS cream keyswitches for scale the mouse and its associated Model M keyboard used to plug into an early-1990s RS/6000 the size and shape of a two-drawer filing cabinet I'm pretty sure that system ran Taligent since I scavenged a complete set of Taligent docs at the same time as the mouse & keyboard (alas I couldn't keep the system itself or find any CDs)

neato! i'll have to consider the mouse, as much as i'd love a matched set the mx performance i have at the office is really good heh, 20$ on ebay though, worst case it's a desk toy

Hi keyboards thread I'm here to report on the quality of the CODE keyboard. This one has greens with the o-rings removed  I'm disappointed because greens are fantastic to type on  it took me less than a year to do this to the original keycaps. Now I need to sign up for some nerd massdrop to get better replacements.On the upside, I bought a unicomp to replace this one and that is now my favorite keyboard ever

if you ever come across a Taligent CD set I want it also, according to people I know who have one, the CD set that employees got when IBM finally shipped the Taligent Application Environment 1.0 and developer tools for AIX (in like 1996, lol) wasn't actually a real CD set: the CDs were printed, but empty IBM was worried about the software getting out without a properly executed license agreement and support contract or something

also as a heads up massdrop are going to be doing black friday specials with lots of the popular stuff based on poll results over the next few days the granite keycap set is winning the custom keyset poll right now which is good because i would really like a set also FopeDush the tenkeyless code keyboard is winning on one of the polls as well so you might be able to get one of those cheaper

I'd rather invest in a nice set of PBT keycaps made for backlighting. Probably these ones, in black: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/vortex-backlit-doubleshot-pbt-keycaps

Symbolic Butt posted:this looks pretty good but that |\ key is freaking me out yeah; I like the ginormo enter key, but moving backslash up there really sucks, also means you don't get a bigger backspace key still, it was a free kb and it feels decent so whatever still want a buckling spring one sometime though

Probably these ones, in black: I can't see the link but I suspect those are the ones I got. the backlight effect will be disappoint compared to what you've currently got but they will feel superior. they will feel epic as hell
