NOTE: We obtained a set of rare IBM model M2 (1395300) keyboards from a trusted IBM spare parts warehouse. Items are brand new in their original box and were still in factory sealed condition when we obtained them. However, after testing with a number of ps/2 to USB converters, these IBM ps/1 keyboards do not appear to work on a modern computer.
(Perhaps someone with more advanced electronics expertise can determine the problem and make these keyboards functional on a modern PC?)
comments
We suspect that the keyboards are expecting a specific signal or voltage from the IBM ps/1 motherboard and we are unable to confirm functionality. These keyboards are being sold at discounted rate of $25 for spare parts or as collector’s items.
Items are being sold as-is (no returns) and would make a nice addition to the collection to those interested in vintage IBM hardware or those who collect vintage buckling spring keyboards
