Vintage Computer Keyboard Repair

I use the KVM in a computer repair business, it allows me to have just one monitor and keyboard/mouse and work on multiple computer at once. It has good connections and the cable setup is great.

If and when in need of computer support, and or repair it's a good service to have.

My original Mac Keyboard I have been using for probably well over 20 years. When I started experiencing problems with a random repeating key, I felt I needed to repair it because Apple no longer makes this model. Well, my repair did work for a month or so but the old problem returned. Other generic keyboards just did not cut it. Probing into the B&H Website, I found the Matias duplicate of the original Mac keyboard. I was a little reliant to purchase it but felt it couldn't be any worse than what I was using. To make a long story short, I love this keyboard. The only difference between it and the original is the slightly different key pressure feedback. It is not as soft as the original but to me it is winner.

This was for a vintage tripod I had to repair. (Machined a new bolt and everything....) Works just fine and looks good, too. This is a surprisingly nice little ball head. It feels well made, and the screw knobs are comfortable to grip. It pans nicely, and the ball locks down firmly. The plate also allows a few cm of slide forward and back. The level on the plate knob is a good idea, going to have to test that on uneven setups eventually. My ONLY complaint is that the mark for rotation angle is on the back side, for me, if the knobs are on my side of the head. Not worth making a fuss, but it would be better placed on the other side. Overall, I recommend it.

I have a vintage (1978) amplifier whose preamp isn't working. A local repair shop wanted nearly $200 to fix it, provided they could still get parts. I bought the PP999, plugged it into a line-level input and started enjoying my record collection again! It works well and is very cost effective!

One thing is for sure, when your computer goes down, the repair won't be cheap. I always get Apple Care and it has always paid off!

Both work well, but I had to remove so as to send the computer to Acer for repair of the touchpad.

Seems this is the best option if you want to put a newer drive in a vintage computer.

These are normally used in computer repair, but I bought one to help pull a sticky casement window closed. Perfect.

I looked everyone for one of these cables department stores, computer repair shop, all over the state. thanks to their VERY wide selection of inventory. I was able to get my VR headset and laptop connected and functioning.
