It's funny seeing a #ModelM with highlighted gamer WASD keys :)

Someday, I hope to see what the buckling-spring mechanism feels like.

@tom It’s such a joy to type on. Full sensory experience. Sound & haptic feedback. Also doubles as a self defense weapon in a pinch. #ModelM

Mapping the Meta/Super key to Caps Lock on my vintage IBM #ModelM keyboard makes #GNOME so much more enjoyable.

@llamasoft_ox I had the "tenkeyless" version of this, the Model M Space Saver, for a while but they keys were juuuust a little sticky sometimes in their action, so I sold it back to eBay whence it came. Was lovely, tho.

I forgot what a joy it is to type on one of these. Now I want a similar experience on my modern desktop. I'm not at all a keyboard nerd (I have enough nerdy obsessions already) so uhm, any recommendations?

A Year With the Mini M

Just over a year ago I got my Unicomp Model M Mini, a newly manufactured version of what is in my estimation the best computer keyboard ever, the IBM Model M SSK. The Minis and the SSKs are like a regular IBM Model M, but they don’t have a number pad at the right, so I can put the trackball there and not have to reach for it.
