Hello,

I am excited to announce that I have found what the seller called "broken and useless keyboard" at a very reasonable price.

It will take some months until I receive it. It has to cross a couple of European borders.

As I do not need it, I have decided to offer it the community as a donor. The goal is not to make money but to allow others to complete their projects. I do not want to lose money though ;)

Please send me PM if you need a part. As you may know I am not very active in the forum due to my time limitations, but I will try to access my messages every week.

I just hope that I can help someone to complete a project ;)

Cheers

i$

By the way ... it was found while clearing an old office.
It is very probable that they took away more of these. I have asked the seller to provide my contact details to the "cleaning" company. We may be lucky twice ...

Hi i$, long time no read. I'd like to complete my project (see pic), but maybe someone else may have more right of way than me :roll:
