[GreenKeys] Hooray for my Model 15!

[drlegendre .]

Nothing like bringing new life to an old machine - congratulations.

I've also got a Mdl. 15 waiting in the wings, but that's still about 4-5
months off. It's sitting at a friend's house down in St. Louis.

Thing is, my machine is fitted with fractional keycaps - yet it apparently
has a communications basket installed. Do you know where I might find a set
of comms. keycaps to replace the fractional set?

Once that's taken care of, we should look at re-uniting our disused
fractional hardware.. the basket & caps should be in the same collection.
