Shameless bump

You need the accolades of a bunch of shut in neckbeard NEETs on an Indonesian knitting forum? Is that why you got this autistic tier board or are you actually gonna use it?
>Super happy with myself.
Mmmk...

>Mmmk...
Being gay isn't alright.

i don't understand why people pretend these keyboards are something out of this world
i used them back in the day and they weren't particularly impressive, i honestly think current mechanical keboards feel way better

I wonder why ibm don't make them again when it's have a bunch of fanbois.

Into the trash it goes

>It's another hipster episode
Fuck off, Model F was the only good IBM buckling spring keyboard.

i'm a white eastern european and have only seen two b*ack people in my life around here

You have been blessed.

Nah, they are cool people when they are alone.

I'll let that slide because you haven't lived near them or on a all-nigger neighborhood.

Don't fall for the media meme.

the post you're replying to wasn't mine by the way, i'm the eastern-shithole guy and i know that around black you don't relax, that guy is someone else

I see.

>i know that around black you don't relax

Smart man:)

I've had this exact model for years. Got it for $1 at a garage sale.
Finally switched to just a ducky w/ mx silvers and haven't looked back

>no nkro

Enjoy tour audiophile tier placebo

>not the square badge

>not the model F
Thats shit m8
3/10 for the effort

>not using the superior silent type model M

>a keyboard makes me happy

This belongs in /mkg/

why did you censor "black"? is it a bad word now?

I used to own a model m back in the '90s and the keys were very hard and sometimes sticky, I don't get this meme

I have a 30 USD microsoft wireless keyboard and is WAY better

I too used it (model F) back in the day and I got to say it was a really nice keyboard, but I didn't really appreciate it at the time. My first computer was an IBM XT and that was the keyboard that came with it.

It really was a very good keyboard. However, I do remember that it was really loud, louder than cherry mx blue switches and anything else for that matter.

I realize this sounds stupid now but here's how it went: The plug on my IBM keyboard was a huge XT connector. I later got a 80386 (I had that XT for too long) and it obviously didn't fit so to the dump it went along with the XT and the CGA monitor and the 5.25" floppies. Of course .. saving it for 30+ years just in case it would become a popular thing would probably be equally silly.

There's not exactly a huge market and there is this company called Unicomp that does make "original" (almost) IBM keyboards.

It doesn't, not long term anyway - but it sure is nice to use. Typing on my duck duck shine 5 really is quite enjoyable and much more satisfying than using a membrane keyboard.

sweetie...

>not a model f

>why did you censor "black"? is it a bad word now?
Because if you use the word, and you're not black, you're committing cultural appropriation.

Over here the only black people we have in my city are about 20 or 30 literal stowaways from Zimbabwe or something since 5 or so years ago, all adults, most of them already married. They all hawk cheap accessories on the major public avenues, just set up a briefcase full of baseball caps, sunglasses and Rolex imitations on a wooden apple box and attend to anybody who walks up to them, no yelling to grab attention or being annoying. They don't even try to pretend they're selling originals, so it's not like they're stiffing anyone or taking business from the actual jewelry stores selling legit gold and gemstones. I saw two of them try to flag down a cop cruiser while tending to some dude who had a bloody face; a pack of brown-type niggers surrounded him, "escorted" him into an alley and beat the shit out of him to take his phone, I read about the mugging on the news later. They all speak the local language, though with a thick accent. They're not on benefits (as stowaways without IDs, it's impossible even if they wanted to apply), and none of them have had problems with the law according to a buddy who's a cop.

I mean they're not supposed to be here and normally I'd tell 'em to go back, but I personally don't mind as long as they continue being chill. They seem to be pretty different from the niggers I was forced to live around for 10 years back in the US. Hope they don't fuck it up and make me start considering them ordinary niggers. The belt they sold me is still holding up really well and not flaking like cheap shit.

>>buying memebrane keyboard

I've been using my membrane kb daily for over 15 years, and it still feels new.

Lying on the internet
Whats the point lol?

>Accusing someone of lying on the internet
>Whats the point lol?

I has same model M.
Right Alt key doesn't click however, but works.
Found in a curbside junk pile. Needs USB adapter however.

fuck off nazi

Im not accusing, i know for a fact youre a liar

not a membranefag

but hey those buttons are huge

I mean huge, very huge

>blue badge
Lmao might as well throw it back in the trash where it belongs.

Wut? The buttons are the same size. You mean the bezel is hueg

You're right. I wasn't being completely truthful. I've actually been using this kb for over 17 years, not 15.

xD
It's still quite old. I need to find a replacement badge. I had a much older one with a grey badge and removable wire you could plug into a network card. This one doesn't have it unfortunately.

I think you mean the alt-right key.

Yes, I did.

model f is objectively better in every way

model m is a glorified membrane keyboard

Mate of mine lent me his Model M for a few months.

Best way to describe it is it's like an old muscle car - loud, impractical, missing features we take for granted (win/super keys) but by Christ does it feel good to drive

Sup nigga

I remap caps to super. Nobody needs caps anyway

Where did you get it and how much did you pay.

>Being gay isn't alright.
It's FABULOUS!

Unicomp sells the orig IBM keyboards

I have this one, the Unix keyboard since I use emacs for everything pckeyboard.com/page/product/40PSA

I ended up mapping caps to control, like a HHKB, and used control as my super key.

It worked okay but it wasn't perfect. It was a few years ago now so I can't remember exactly what the problem is unfortunately
