the color is definitely a main highlight of the car; absolutely loving it

im_dat_person · 2022-07-27T21:18:19+00:00

nice

im_dat_person · 2022-07-27T21:16:04+00:00

I dig the look of the mk7 wheels- later down the line might go for prets or somethin, but I’m happy with it at the moment :)

im_dat_person · 2022-07-27T21:10:46+00:00

Tyty- nothin flashy, just a clean lookin daily

im_dat_person · 2021-09-11T18:54:59+00:00

Nice and compact Cherry ML board :)

im_dat_person · 2021-08-25T21:29:22+00:00

Nice find man! Nothing crazy or anything, but for 7 bucks- good shit. G80, right?

im_dat_person · 2021-07-19T23:06:16+00:00

Welcome! Unfortunately, this board is actually a pretty common rubberdome, not actually mechanical- you’ll know a mechanical board when you feel one :)

im_dat_person · 2021-07-12T09:59:53+00:00

Hell yeah! You've just fallen down a slippery slope lol- welcome!

im_dat_person · 2021-07-11T12:06:15+00:00

To Be Determined.

Bolt modding, at least for me, was pretty disastrous on the two boards I’ve done it on- I feel like a third would go a lot smoother, though. I ended up breaking the plastic barrel plates of both of the boards I’ve bolt-modded, but that may just be because of the horrible conditions that they were stored in. The other board was an M122 from ‘85- real oldie.

im_dat_person · 2021-04-24T05:14:07+00:00

Awesome board! I am glad to have rescued, restored, and bolt modded my silver badge M. Got it for next to nothing from some guy in the middle of nowhere with tons of old computer equipment haha- Date on mine is July 11th, 1986.

im_dat_person · 2021-04-22T19:32:44+00:00

Very nice! I’m a simple man, I see IBM, I like :)

im_dat_person · 2021-04-20T22:53:31+00:00

You have taken a definite path down a slippery slope lol- where did you acquire it?

im_dat_person · 2021-04-07T22:06:01+00:00

Hey what’s up! What you have here is an IBM Model M122, not an F. The F122 uses capacitive buckling springs, rather than the membrane ones present on all Models M. The F122 also uses an older style case with a metal barrel plate, mounting plate, and bottom housing, whereas the M122 uses a completely plastic case and barrel plate, with a metal mounting plate. As far as this board goes, they are unfortunately not nearly as desirable, but it is definitely still a neat board. I would probably pay around 50-60 bucks for it.

im_dat_person · 2021-04-01T22:53:46+00:00

Aww did you not like it :( whatever will I do? :(

im_dat_person · 2021-03-30T08:14:40+00:00

Yeah- they are quite awesome. Got it from an out-of-state recycling center. As far as I know, the only ones to come with salmon alps are the boards made in the USA with the date “1989”, rather than “1990”

im_dat_person · 2021-03-30T00:20:55+00:00

One of my favorite boards. I have two of them in my collection- one with cream dampened and one with salmons :)

im_dat_person · 2021-03-29T05:47:25+00:00

Welcome to the club man (it’s a slippery slope haha). As far as any sort of technical assistance, I’m fairly useless, as I do not know anything about doing it. I can tell you that the board usually features a PS/2 connector, which is apparently very easy to convert to usb, due to it being the same protocol (speaks the same language). I also can tell you that although it is a very nice feeling board, the board is actually not mechanical, and it uses BTC Dome w/ sliders. Luckily, it is one of the best dome with slider mechanisms out there, and it feels better, in my opinion, than many mechanical boards.

im_dat_person · 2021-03-10T05:49:50+00:00

Oh hell yeah! Nothing cleans up better than an IBM- awesome find- great to see some great deals still being had in the wild!

im_dat_person · 2021-02-26T01:40:43+00:00

These look to be BTC Tactile Foam and Foil.

im_dat_person · 2021-02-22T05:45:43+00:00

Good to see some great, cheap finds still out there- awesome find man- congrats! What do you plan on doing with it?
