my 89 model needed a bath after getting a glass of Pepsi so I broke the 87 out of the vault I normally keep it in!!!!!
For those that don''t know 87 was the ones that you had to hit the shift and enter keys on the edge because of the duel spring design, later replaced by hold down wires.
ah I''m in new keyboard nirvana!
it even has the new keyboard smell!!
ah there is nothing closer to typing on the best  typewriters in the world!!!

ok im a geek and your going huh! lol
