Future Computers/Cortron ITW Magnetic Valve Keyboard
This is a pretty rare keyboard from what I gather. It is in great condition for its age. I cannot test it because it doesn't use a standard protocol but someone out there could possibly convert it.

Alphameric 142-2762
It's a foam & foil board which I never bothered trying to convert.

DigiPos (Tipro) POS with Cherry MX blacks and relegendable keycaps
Apple Extended Keyboard M0115 (Orange Alps)
The keyboard is fairly yellowed and has not been cleaned but the switches feel good and the keycaps aren't filthy. The top right appears to have been engraved. Keyboard has been tested and is working.

Apple Extended Keyboard II with White Damped Alps, Linearised, USB modded
The broken ADB port has been swapped to the other side and a Teensy 2.0 has been installed inside with a fixed USB cable. The switches have been linearised. The plate still has signs of rust, but has been cleaned to the best of my ability.

Walters branded LCD-286/Unitech K959 Keyboard with Vintage MX Blues
I bought this with the intention of using it as I wanted to try vintage cherry MX Blues but it really isn't my cup of tea. The keycaps appear to be Pad Printed ABS (can't confirm though likely). The PCB is dated 1988.

Apple Desktop Bus Mouse II M2706
This mouse was included with the keyboard - I assume it was included with it. It is in fairly good condition apart from some dirt on the shell and a missing slider on the bottom.

Would be interested in that XT IBM. I believe postage to Australia is somewhere on the bounds of 35 pound sterling using royal mail?
Because it's cracked and I'm unsure of the method of restoration (pls elaborate if it's been powder coated, etc), I can offer 75 pound for it as labour in restoring the keyboard would've cost much time. So that would be approx 110 pound all up. Hmu in pm's

I'm interesteed in one Digipro. Which connection do they have?
They have a PS/2 port however you will need to use a 32 bit OS/virtual box if you want to reprogram the keyboard over PS/2 (I think?)
Ok. Thanks.
To program a Tipro over PS/2 requires a 32 bit OS,virtual machines will not work,see viewtopic.php?f=2&t=18949 for the work around I found to program my rebadged Tipro.

Thanks for the tip. I do have several Win32 machines... but without a ps/2 port so I was thinking in something like that or even a separate partition install.
