About
The USBTypewriter™ is a new and groundbreaking innovation in the field of obsolescence. Lovers of the look, feel, and quality of old-fashioned manual typewriters can now use them as keyboards for any USB-capable computer, such as a PC, Mac, or even iPad! The modification is easy to install, involves no messy wiring, and does not change the typewriter's outward appearance (except for a small control panel mounted on the back). Plus, it supports all the advanced functions of a modern keyboard, such as ctrl, alt, esc, arrow keys, and yes, even backspace. And the best part is, the USB Typewriter still types great on paper! The result is a true antique, given a new lease on modernity.
Where to buy:
If you'd like to try your hand at modifying your own typewriter, our easy-to-assemble D.I.Y. kits are available here. If you would rather not do the modification yourself, you can also visit our etsy store, where you will find many finely crafted USB-Typewriters, fully assembled and tested by the inventor.
