Comment on IBM PS/2 Keyboard Modificationparent

Comments

I bought one of the Unicomp Model M keyboards in the 101 key configuration for comparison. Build quality is good, not great. Feels similar but is louder and the keys wobble slightly compared to my 89 model m.

If you want this experience, I’d suggest you grab a used model M on eBay. TFI had good reference on usb to ps2 adapters that work. For an xt cable, you can buy a sorros (sp?) converter for 40 bucks. Or a new usb to RJ cable that will plug directly into the keyboard.
