Speaking of, I noticed the blue ALPS DC-2014 auction ended without any bids at 99. Seems like the blue craze is finally blowing over

I assume this is the same one, relisted with a BIN of $99.95: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Leading-Edge-XT-DC-2014-84-Keyboard-Blue-Alps-Slider-IBM-Clicky ...

Nice sold find
At least no one can blame me for "forcing" them to buy it :D

That's a shame. Anyway, the seller said he'd provide a photo tomorrow.

I'd assume it's for bluetooth pairing.

Anyone know what kind a keycaps these have?

Are you sure?

Ah, the world of amps. I'm sure their enthusiast community think we're weird and vice versa.

Would these be foil and foam?: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FANUC-A20B-0007-0440-03-KEYBOARD-W-A20B ...

I'm just about to win some great mislisted auctions for "blue amps", "hall affect" and "beamsprung" keyboards. But good luck finding them, because I made them up .

I figured that this had to be in the pipeline after they released that bluetooth tablet stand as a stopgap.

Matias keyboard has that protruding thing too. Maybe it's a trend?

I always assumed that their design was based on the original ADB keyboard: https://deskthority.net/wiki/Apple_Desktop ...

Looks similar to the Hall Effect in Chyros' most recent video, except with case.

Was this an Model M?
Still unsure

German ISO Model M, according to the part number (1391403).

I suspect a Realfource 104U would come off pretty damn well, judging by what people said and my previous experience with Topre switches :D
Well, hopefully they're listening :D

Unfortunately, by only reviewing vintage gear you're unlikely to get any sponsorship deals

I wonder if there is a perceptible spike in demand for a keyboard after Chyros has made a video about it.

I thought I was just experiencing a stroke

It'll be interesting to see how this (non-Displaywriter) SSK auction pans out: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/IBM-Model-M-S ... 2343763582

IBM Model M SSK: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/IBM-model-M-S ... 1530492889

$250 BIN. No cord and one replacement key.

That's a serious piece of hardware, the seller might want to mention the weight of that puppy. :o
He's charging a £26 shipping fee (within the UK), so I can only imagine :D.

It previously didn't sell at auction with a £50 starting price.

I didn't mean that as a criticism, by the way. I'm just voicing my confusion. I'm still getting to grips with identifying vintage gear.

When I linked that seller a couple of days ago, I was told he only had "foil and foam".

A couple of "Dolch PAC Cherry MX Blue" boards: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dolch-PAC-Cherry-MX-Blue-Clicky-Keyboard-6P4C-RJ14-Plug-/301921393248

BIN price and shipping costs make them prohibitively expensive (for me in UK).

Were they perhaps keyboards with relegendable keys? wiki/Relegendable_key

I'm afraid I can't offer much insight into the switches, I'm still learning the basics myself.
