Model M keyboard from 1986. I got it working on my modern PC!

Support Veronica Explains: https://support.linux.mom Buy my t-shirt: https://vkc.sh/merch My new keyboard is nearly as old as I am! In this exciting episode of Veronica Explains, I share my most recent vintage computing find, an actual factual IBM Model M keyboard! This keyboard - an IBM Model M 1390131 to be precise - is a legend for excellent feel and longevity- this one is from 1986 and feels (and sounds) like a dream. The retro computing community loves this keyboard for good reason! It's not just show-and-tell in today's episode, though- I'll be going into how I got it set up with my modern USB-only computer using a Soarer's Converter- an excellent adapter which lets me remap keys, program macros, and other fun stuff. With this awesome adapter, you can easily remap keys on your Model M, and it works on Linux, macOS, and Windows. It's super neat and I hope you enjoy it!
