Hi tinkerboy! I just got mine yesterday and just want to say thank you! i’ve been wanting to use my old IBM Model F keyboard for some time now and this converter works really great! I’m also hoping for a converter for an IBM Terminal keyboard?
tinkerBOY –
I will be offering that soon too. 🙂

Just picked my converter up from the post office and I’m currently writing this review on my old keyboard. It was simple plug and play. And delivery time was quick and easy. Thanks so much, been waiting to use this keyboard for almost 20 years now.

Works flawlessly with my 1983 Model F XT keyboard!
Configuring the on-board controller to remap some keys was easy, and now I can use this old beast on my modern systems.
