Re: Royal FPE Came Today...

I added a splash of accent color to the ribbon cover.

I realize for many members this is not their cup-o-tea.

But for me, it is now more balanced.  There is still the two-tone grey going on.

And my inspiration for the colour-scheme...my 1959 Everest K2 portable.

Re: Royal FPE Came Today...

Nice Royal!  After all my typing, I think the FP is the best desktop standard out there.  Perhaps a bit bland in features, but it is a true king for typing.  I strongly regret selling mine last summer, it was local to my town for all its life and now belongs to a Texas author.  I'll get another someday, holding out for yellow.  Or pink.  I love them.  Even sold my SG1, I'd rather have an FP.

Re: Royal FPE Came Today...

If anyone is looking for a "cocoa" coloured one...this one is in Boise ID for $ 35.  Looks like it might be a nice one.

Re: Royal FPE Came Today...

That looks like a steal for anyone in Boise!

Re: Royal FPE Came Today...

Same offer to a Member who has serious interest.  I could go and look and test-drive it for you since it is close to our home.
