Don't know much about the sharp, but that green ALPS board is overpriced as hell. There's a reason why it hasn't been sold for months.

Yes and no.  Price seems way to high imo for it to be a "great find" but technically yes, stuff like this should go there.

Cool keyboards but crazy prices.  Even for linear green alps

The Sharp board is probably blue or green Alps, but yeah, very pricey. A couple have sold recently for $165 + shipping:

AFAIK, those sharp boards only come in Yellow or Green Alps.

Edit: And it is possible to make one useable.

I have an ADDS 1010 sitting in the cupboard. Fun novelty board, but since I can't use it that's really all it amounts to.
