11 November 2018

21 February 2017

• curprev 13:1013:10, 21 February 2017 >Ander m 27,816 bytes −1 →1393464: Traditionally, non-possessive/contractive apostrophes are used only with single characters (e.g. "Model M's"). The meaning here should be clear. undo

• curprev 13:1813:18, 25 February 2016 >Ander m 27,386 bytes −4 →1392366: "Failed to sell" means few were sold (not that none were sold). Other minor changes. If you don't like them, feel free to undo them, as usual. undo

• curprev 00:5600:56, 24 September 2015 >Ander 27,347 bytes −1,100 I've suggested some ways to avoid redundancies and make the text more concise. Lexmark IBM KBs are far more common than Unicomp IBMs, so I've switched that order. To me, "keycap" means the cover, not the whole key. undo

• curprev 21:3821:38, 8 April 2015 >Ander 27,862 bytes +139 →Others: I've seen only 2 Wang Model M's in all the time I've been a keyboard fan, and Brandon at Clickykeyboards.com has seen only one, so this seems a reasonable assumption. undo

• curprev 22:5022:50, 3 March 2015 >Ander 26,885 bytes +935 →Design details: Added section re the Model M's distinctive sound, which seems like a significant "feature". Hope this is okay. undo
• curprev 22:2322:23, 3 March 2015 >Ander m 25,950 bytes +2 →Design details: Sorry, I forgot—since it's called a "Model M", I think we prefer to avoid "model" when referring to different PNs. undo
• curprev 22:2222:22, 3 March 2015 >Ander 25,948 bytes −13 →Design details: Clarified that all M's have the grille, but not the speaker; other small cleanups. undo

18 February 2015

• curprev 01:4401:44, 18 February 2015 >Ander 25,961 bytes −8 →Third generation: This seemed like a slightly classier way to say it. (What do you think?) undo
• curprev 01:4201:42, 18 February 2015 >Ander 25,969 bytes +11 →Third generation: 1. It's not really a "label" (attached) but a "logo" (molded in the case). 2. If SDL cables were "sometimes" used, the coiled must have "usually" been used (for all the rest). undo
• curprev 01:3801:38, 18 February 2015 >Ander m 25,958 bytes −13 →Second generation: Economized some text; changed "was" to "were" to match "features" (plural). undo

• curprev 09:5309:53, 17 February 2015 >Ander m 25,814 bytes −4 →Keycaps: Quotes aren't necessary around these terms, as they're literal, not figurative. undo

16 February 2015

• curprev 12:2712:27, 16 February 2015 >Ander m 25,818 bytes −2 →Fourth generation: "was" and "is" here actually apply to "generation", which is singular—even though "generation" refers to multiple keyboards. Grammar can seem funny, huh? undo
• curprev 08:4408:44, 16 February 2015 >Ander m 25,820 bytes −14 →1394946 undo
