With the logo placement it looks more like an AT101W.

So I did some research and this is what I found:
"While playing through Portal the player will eventually come across several rooms containing lots of computers and keyboards. The only keys on the keyboards that are highlighted yellow are the letters that spell out "Adrian Shephard" (A, D, E, H, I, N, P, R, S)."

GROUP BUY NEEDED XD

Yes, we should commision some g80-3000 with the aperture logo on the case body and everything.

How do we know it's a mechanical keyboard being depicted? It could just be an old ****ty RD...

Hope... we must have hope :-\

Well with that many custom key caps, it HAS to be mechanical...
-
Cave Johnson wouldn't have spent the extra money on mechanical keyboards.
-
But would a groupbuy from Cherry be able to have factory standardized smudging and grime? I need my Portal board to be a perfect replica.

There was a guy long time ago here on GH that was trying to replicate that keyboard.

Wish he was still around, would love to see his progress.

He would have if they were used and known to last...then they'd be cheaper anyway.

Just passed 1000 posts - congratulations! :)
Sounds like an interesting holiday project for someone.

I'm sure wasd could do this. Just color the specific key caps and add a "grime" type filter.

I'll be looking into making one or two of these sometime next year actually, as both me and the girlfriend are big fans of the Portal games.

I think more than one guy has been working on Portal keyboards.
Here is another view (posted on this board before). Maybe this is a different type of keyboard.

It probably won't be too exciting, I'll most likely just get something with MX switches that looks fairly close and then order caps from WASD, only thing I'd have to do then would be to add the logo and whatnot.
Any suggestions for boards to use would be appreciated.

:eek: LOL that's cool.
Never noticed that.
