I miss mine. Still have 10 laying around, just no reliable converters to use them on usb only hardware. (DasKeyboard boards are an acdeptable alternative though)

I wore down 1 spacebar cap in 10 y, but no issues what so ever apart from the wear on that 1 cap. (But I have a complete set spare caps as well ;) )

Unicomp makes passable USB buckling spring keyboards. Not quite as rugged as the solid metal plate backed OGs, but a joy to type on.

If you have like $25 you can cook up your own converter with a promicro and a connector. Look up "soarer's converter" on deskthority.

If you have any trouble with that hit me up here or on discord (Mandarbmax) and I'll help you out or if you really can't do it I can cook you up a converter myself and mail it to you.
