[comp.os.cpm] Kaypro Replacement Keyswitches/Caps

WWH@NCCIBM1.BITNET ("Bill Weinel") (05/02/90)

    I recently inherited an old Kaypro II system which is in good
working order except for having five broken keys on the keyboard. The
former owner apparently lost the keycaps too since he didn't give them
to me along with the machine. I'm trying to locate someone who has an
old Kaypro keyboard who might be able to supply me with 5 switches and
caps to fix the problem. I have found a commercial vendor in CA who
sells replacement keyboards. However, since the price of his keyboards
is more than what I paid for the system, it's kind of hard to justify
going this route. If anyone has one laying around, and would like to
recover some of his/her investment, please contact me. Many thanks..
                                                      TWYL  Bill

Contact Kaypro. Two years ago when I had a Kaypro II with a defective keyboard
I called them up and the were selling off their collection of Kaypro II
keyboard mechanisms for $25.00 each.
