That's a really good price. Too bad I promised myself I would sell off the ones I don't use.

It should make a decent switch donor for... someone.
Thanks for the heads up, ekeppel.

Wait is the Yahoo! keyboard really wavy like that, or is it just the warped box? I can never tell with these late '90s keyboards.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/223036955219
Possibly scratchy from all that dust though...

Here is a DC-2014 with the real thing (Blue Alps) for $169.99 It was listed early this morning so I'm a little surprised that it hasn't sold already:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/LEADING-EDGE-M ... 3296911328
Not really a bad price considering what blue alps have been selling for lately.
EDIT: Wow, that was fast. It sold moments after I posted this. Did someone here snag this one?

I had the chance to buy it, then I thought about the time required to repair it... and unfortunately, this year I have many other projects lined up. Oh well
