eightbit Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I have been out of the CoCo scene for a few years, but recently made a trade in order to own a CoCo3 again. I am still waiting for that computer so it is going to be some time before I can mess with it again. So, while I was waiting I decided I needed a CocoSDC of course. When I went to purchase one I found Ed Snider (Zippster) actually created a drop in replacement keyboard (a few styles) for the CoCo3. And they are mechanical! There was one left so I jumped on it. It arrived today and man what a thing of beauty. I wish all vintage computers could get this treatment. Just superb. I cannot wait to finally get my CoCo3 and try this bad boy out! https://thezippsterzone.com/keyboards/ And I found the project page really interesting: https://thezippsterzone.com/2018/09/14/coco-mech-mechanical-keyboard/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
