@Azhdar yay, I'm glad you got it :D. I would have sent you a PM if I had known you were actively searching.

Regarding searching, I do not use any special tool/website. I do it old school, manually searching for keywords and scrolling through countless pages :)))
I know, I must be mad, but if that's what it takes to find a nice Cherry dyesub set and a G80-3000hxpde, or even an NCR branded G80-3077, then I am going to do it.
Also, I have a lot of idle time at work and I get easily bored :P

I'm always on the lookout for azerty sets, I have too much keyboard, and azerty caps can be tricky to get, especially good condition one, like this one seems to be.

What's the going rate for a SAD set like that these days, anyway?

I'm guessing crazy monkey balls, but just curious.

That's what I'm wondering as well.

I've asked before: http://deskthority.net/post237864.html#p237864

Consensus was ~40EUR

Personally, I'm not really interested in QWERTZ and I prefer the sharper legends on the doubleshots. Of course, thick PBT is always nice, but I think someone else will appreciate them more.

EDIT: I'm happy to trade with a SAU/HAU set. :lol:

Not bad. I'd consider paying that for them. And I'm damn cheap! Not in a Keycool kind of way though. I prefer not to have something, rather than a shitty low end "equivalent". Cherry dyesubs are legit, I just don't trust those compulsive collectors and their effect on prices!

Same, but it's really pretty. Could still be the dome version, though. :?

Interesting Sony keyboard but those are not Alps SKCM Blue if that's what you mean.

http://deskthority.net/wiki/Alps_SKCM_Blue

They almost look like Alps semi-integrated dome but are probably not either.

I'd guess they're an Alps mount dome with slider design, but I could be horribly wrong.

Also found this ibm, pretty bad shape on the caps, it seems interesting

Wooo that's the first computer I had as a kid! It would only work in warm rooms so we had to stick the heating on for half an hour before we used it. It's the ancient equivalent of a laptop and didn't come with a hard disk by default, one of the two floppies held the OS. That thing was great, it's a shame we got rid of it when we moved house.

As I recall the keyboard didn't have a metal back panel, and it has that weird RJ connector. Caps should be easy to clean though, including the marker lines (should come off readily with ethanol). Good clean and they'd be good as new.

Well I contacted the man on the phone last night, we had an agreement, but now it's gone and he's not picking the phone :x

I hope it's you ramnes that got it.

Xerox 860 information processing system keyboard
http://www.ebay.com/itm/321809240356

Another Goodwill Austin auction. I won't be sad if I miss this one but I *will* bid on it. All proceeds benefit Austin Goodwill. I've seen the work they do first hand, it is a good cause. Some things matter more than money and keyboards. I can go pick it up in person which lets me bid higher. ;-)

Yes, that is a trackpad on the right. A trackpad from 1981.

Those Xerox boards are the largest keyboards I've ever seen in person. Even a Beamspring is humbled by their physical presence. If not exactly key feel…

It remains to be seen what switches these Xerox keyboards have. I hope Mu can make it to the museum in less than six days from now.
