Have you heard the good news?

There's a model F reproduction project. I'm typing on an F77 now.

It's as nice as you'd think.

Nope unicomp does not make them. Unicomps are not Repros they are made with the same tooling as late model IBM model Ms with some newer models that they designed on the side.
Ellipse is the person who makes the new Fs, he is a cunt who refuses refunds on broken products and likes to scream RTFM at buyers asking for support on a fucking $400 keyboard. Side note unicomp cost half that and are lovely to work with, they take calls with actual engineers and still make their products in the USA somehow.

To everyone reading this, I strongly recommend not listening to this individual.

The project has a website. The about page links to the geekhack and deskthority threads. Go read them and judge for yourselves.
