Review: The most epic keyboard that will ever exist. - Words cannot describe the sheer awesomeness of this keyboard! Not only is this keyboard the pinnacle of perfection, it is also a portal into the realm of the gods. The mere act of typing this review is awakening the gods, once awoken by the sound of the clickity clacking of this beautiful piece of human engineering, the gods will stand in awe of its shear magnificence. Typing on this fantastic piece of retro goodness, instantly, converts one into an elite hacker. It makes composing documents, and typing reports into a grand show, women, children, and even men, stop and stare in awe as they pass. It is not just a keyboard, it has many, many other uses. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, it converts into a very formidable weapon. The weight and solid construction, of the IBM M model, makes it sturdy enough to fend off even the most ferocious of attackers, and afterwards it can be used as an axe to chop fire wood. If one were to acquire enough IBM model m's, one could build an impenetrable fortress, that no man could tear asunder. There are even rumors, that one IBM model M survived a direct impact from a nuclear bomb at a test site. You won't get that kind of durability from any namby-pamby quiet keyboard. Now, granted it could not be used covertly in some sneak attack, but when you hear it coming, you better watch out. The sound of the keys quickly clicking, is like a keyboard symphony, a heavenly sound, comprised of clicks and clacks. If I could give this keyboard a higher star rating, I would give it nine quinquadragintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quattuorquadragintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine trequadragintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine duoquadragintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine unquadragintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quadragintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine novemtrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine octotrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine septentrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine sextrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quintrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quattuortrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine tretrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine duotrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine untrigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine trigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine novemvigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine octovigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine septenvigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine sexvigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quinvigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quattuorvigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine trevigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine duovigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine unvigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine vigintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine novemdecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine octodecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine septendecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine sexdecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quindecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quattuordecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine tredecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine duodecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine undecillion, nine hundred ninety-nine decillion, nine hundred ninety-nine nonillion, nine hundred ninety-nine octillion, nine hundred ninety-nine septillion, nine hundred ninety-nine sextillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quintillion, nine hundred ninety-nine quadrillion, nine hundred ninety-nine trillion, nine hundred ninety-nine billion, nine hundred ninety-nine million, nine hundred ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine stars.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it possible to see what year the keyboard is? I'm looking for keyboards prior to 1992 when IBM still made the keyboards instead of Lexmark.**
A: Yes it is possible. These are IBM original keyboards. As old as 1987 - 1992 give us a call if you'd like. 516-693-1530

**Q: Does the keyboard come with the USB adapter?**
A: I did not expect a USB and the keyboard did not come with one.  I was very pleased with the keyboard.  GD.

**Q: Is there a specific, recommended PS/2 Connector that will work with a Haswell, rMBP?**
A: a ps/2 (female) to usb (male) connector is what I used and it works fine on my older pc, (core 2 duo) (windows 7) which has both USB and USB 2 interfacesI don't know about USB 3 slots, but your computer  probably has a combination of them, so it should work. I can't vouch for windows 8, if that's what you are running, since I haven't tried the keyboard on a windows 8 machine. It's a killer keyboard.

**Q: What is the difference between an IBM PS/2 Model M and a Lexmark PS/2 Model M Keyboard?**
A: The IBM keyboard that I have with a 1990 date has removable key caps (nice for cleaning or if you want to use a non-standard layout like Dvorak).  My Lexmark keyboard from 1993 does not have the removable key caps.  Also the IBM coiled keyboard cable has a round cross section and is removable.  The Lexmark coiled keyboard cable is not removable and has a flat cross section.  My IBM keyboard has a gray 'IBM' logo.  My Lexmark keyboard has a blue 'IBM' logo. The typing action of both keyboards seems very similar.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Didn't last long
*by R***O on April 26, 2019*

I know its a refurb so you take your chances, but it stopped working after a few weeks of use. Space bar and one of the other keys stopped working. So disappointed, I love these keyboards and it was great to be using one again.
