A
small
er version of the
IBM Model M Keyboard
that started to be manufactured around 1990 and stopped around 1995. The IBM Model M2 features no
curvature
metal plate, so the IBM Model M2 is more
flat
and has its weight merely cut in half from an original
IBM Model M
.
The IBM Model M2 also has one-piece keys, which are basically enlarged keystems with letters printed on them... This also makes the height of the keys considerably smaller than an
original IBM Model M
.
The Model M2 also has
plastic
control arms instead of the original metal control arms, which makes keys like the spacebar almost impossible to remove without it breaking. These plastic control arms lead to spring mashing when re-inserting the keys... To fix this you would have to buy new springs.
The keyboard also features an attached cable, and approximately two inches cut-off from the top and half an inch cut off from both sides, compared to the
original Model M
. The blue
IBM
logo is also located on the top-right corner. Some of these Model M2 Keyboards where manufactured by
IBM
, and it was later bought by
Lexmark
.
As for Most Model M keyboards, this keyboard also features the infamous
Mechanical "Clicky" Key Switch
. The key-switch that provides
visual
,
tactile
, and
auditory
feedback
.
