Found a IBM Model M

[Mr.Blocko]

Hooorey stuff, I was looking around in my basement and I just stumbled upon it, this has become the best day ever.



For those of you that don't know IBM model M's are some of the best keyboards, the run for about $150: http://www.clickeykeyboards.com/

You found it in your basement?

Watch one of your family member do some exposition stuff and say it belonged to your great uncle that died to spooky causes and now the keyboard is haunted.

Time to try a game with it, sweet Jesus this is gonna be weird.

The Legends say that one key alone was once used as the basis for all world currency.
