I'm working on converting my Televideo 965 and 802 keyboards. The actual conversion are not too dissimilar. I'm thinking of ordering some extra teensy's or arduinos to make some extra converters. If anyone is interested, let me know. It is an easy way to get a linear space invaders keyboard under 50 ...

These switches appear to be fairly rare, let alone in a pc compatible keyboard. I was super excited because XT and AT layouts are my favorite layouts, especially when you remap the keys. I love having full control of my pc without moving wrist, toggling num lock and using the nav clusters that way ...

Really want to give one for a spin. I currently have a beamspring of my own, but its in non working condition, with not even a single switch working properly.

Does anyone know if swapping the locking switch on the capslock switch for a non-locking switch, would let that key behave like a normal key?

Reason being, I really like to map capslock to control.
