The second round ends on Saturday 3 December, 23:59:59 UTC. You can change your vote until the end of the round. The full results will be published at the end of the Awards.

Iirc that picture of all the rusty beamsprings wasn't taken by Madhias. Not saying it doesn't count, I just wondered if it should be 'by Madhias' or 'by *whoever took the picture*'

I think Madhias posted it here first, which explains the confusion. If you (or anyone else) can track the guy who took the photo down, we'll try to contact him (if his photo wins).

E3E's IBM 5576 Alps keyboards still have my vote! These are all great finds, though
