Where are you, Derrick?
I have some IBM stuff of that era - heck, I'm typing this on a keyboard
from a PS/2! - and I shall probably want to thin the
collection
when^H^H^H^H before I move house next year.
So, if you are somewhere near central England, something could easily be
arranged. If you are west of the Atlantic, shipping is probably
prohibitive.

well i am in washington state. the last time i saw an real ibm anything the computer
recycle store that had it wanted $100 for it with no accessories. it was a ps/2 model 25
no keyboard, mouse or system disks, no manual nothin and they still wanted $100 for it
condition unknown. where i live also lots of people just get rid of the stuff they dont
want anymore for free since we have a free electronics and computer recycling program here
so its hard to get my hands on any of it since most of it goes to a computer recycle store
where the thing either gets sold for more then what it is worth or parted out and the
parts sold sepret or they kill it like crush it. anything that ends up at a goodwill the
computers get sent to a place that will kill it off like crush it or part it out then
crush it. the model m keyboards original ones one local computer recycle store wants bout
60 to 75 bucks depending on the condition if they are in sad shape they want like 10 to 20
bucks and thats no telling if they work or not. also i have not seen any true ibm mouse
around only a random made by so and so for ibm i like things that are made by ibm and
badged in the original ibm label the old gray label then u know its real ibm built. sad to
say what little ibm stuff i ever come up with which is nothing usually or if i do find any
ibm stuff its mice made by logitech or some other company. oh well hope to find some ibm
stuff sometime soon

My last couple came from Freecycle. Might be worth trying on there.
Or, in the USA, Craig's List. We don't have that here but I gather
it's big in the States.

(Heh.) I thought something much like... it's a bit
stream-of-consciousness, isn't it?
And a bottom-quote button for his MUA?

Hello Derrick,
I have a "close to new condition" IBM PS/2 keyboard. I worship at the Sun
altar, and have Sun type 5 or type 7 keyboards attached to everything I own,
even Mac's. I don't expect or plan to ever use this again.
Additional details:
part number :1391401
I.D. number :6040439
Plt No : F4
Model M
Date : 26 January 1990
Let me know if you are interested. As you would expect, it is a heavy IBM keyboard.
I can take some cell phone pictures if needed. I'm located south central, zip
75077.
