Got myself this old Atari Mega ST2 couple weeks ago. Currently fixing up this yellowed old boy to look its best next to my pristine Atari 800xl setup #retro #atari #16bit #atarist #retrocomputing
A Little restoration of the Atari Mega ST. Retrobrighting is so satisfying. Also swapped the crusty black cherry mx for browns, feels really good.

Cherry _brown_ FTW!
@6502B cherry mx switches existed back in the ‘80s & ‘90s? i assumed modular switches were a newer thang, never knew (thank you wikipedia for teaching me)
@jm3 The mega st was released in 87 i believe, not sure when mx switches came out tho. this was a premium keyboard at the time compared to the membrane keyboard of the other Atari st models. Black cherry are so stiff tho, the space bar was a grey mx, i think even stiffer
@6502B That keyboard is huuuuge!
@Kaps yup. also heavy, its a cherry mx black mechanical keyboard
