Yowsa. I wonder if theres a mailing list . . .

Just kidding - I'm sure Victor has enough on his plate without
starting modelmtalk.net . . .

Incidentally Model-M hacks -

http://www.modelm.org/thing.htm

Model-M's for sale

http://www.shoppalstores.com/ibmmodelm/
(incl trackball ones
http://www.shoppalstores.com/ibmmodelm/index.cfm/fa/items.main/parentcat/9243/subcatid/0/id/101897)

I had to laugh as my boss always used to threaten to take my Model-M
away and replace it with a new fangled Dell USB2 keyboard. Pah.

The Model-M is so robust I suspect you could snowboard or skateboard on them.

I wish I'd grabbed mine when I left my previous employer - I suspect
its been thrown in a bin by some unknowing young techy . . .
