What do you need and for what model machine? I have a dead keyboard from the T/A series. Some keys are gone, but if you want one of the others, I can check.

I need a J key for T42. Although I guess a lot of the machines have the same size key. If one of the keys the thread starter needs is a J, I guess he gets it first.

another free bump

I'm looking for an N and right Shift for a T42p

there gotta be some people out there who replaced their keyboards and it's just sitting around.. I'd be willing to pay a few bucks and shipping (though you could probably just stick it in an envelope!)

Or, we can start a list of wanted keys and all pitch in to buy one.

2) Dansu: J (T42)
3) rsramirez: N and right Shift (T42)

Maybe you all should go into a new keyboard and divy up the keys, lol.

keycaps?

#7 Post by elee123 » Fri Apr 07, 2006 12:41 pm

does key caps include the holder pieces underneath it?

Doh, i just tried remoiving the enter key yesterday on my old thinkpad t21, and the holder bracket had two pins that broke off.

would a keycap be what i need?
