I’ve had two days in a row where I got to nerd out over stuff with people. Let’s get some of that going for everyone else.

      Maybe I'm not as knowledgeable as I claim. I looked up Unicomp and have seen them in passing but thought they were retro Cherry boards because of the black chassis. Had no idea they are still making keyboards with pointers outside of Thinkpads and the hobbyspace.

        Catastrophic buckling spring switches pineapple-cool Unicomp bought the original blueprints and such, pretty rad.

          I was wondering if that was a thing. I know buckling springs are super hard to come by which is part of the appeal of the Model M, but yeah, no shit, that's cool as fuck.
