This is fantastic, I should put my battery up on eBay and sell it as an Ultra rare component!  Oh wait, I threw that thing in the garbage after I ripped it off the motherboard.  Fortunately the person I had bought it from had replaced it not terribly long ago, but I didn't want to take any chances and it now has a coin battery like it should have done in the first place.  Still not sure how new the NVRAM batteries are in my Ataris that have them.

As far as the keys go... I've been seriously considering purchasing a 3D printer, figuring out how to do laser etching of keys, and then selling them in sets to replace keys.  I wonder how many people would be interested in that?

I think it would be much cheaper to just have a kbd maker make some new key sets, i might be wrong but i dont think you could get the smooth finishes on a 3d printer, and you would be running it to death to make full sets,not to mention the electricity used :)

But it would be cool if you proved me wrong on this ;)

What kind of fool leaves the already leaking battery on the board, letting it eat more each day!  argh!
To top it off, he even posts how its leaking in the LISTING!  i mean :whack:Cmon!

Really bugs me to see this... heh

Someone should buy this if not just to get his address and stop by and hit him with the dead trout...  and remove that damned battery!
