Sorry, can't provide other pictures because i just saw it from an online ad and I'm trying to arrange a meetup iwth the owner for a personal feel.

Aside from that, its doesn't have a windows key and has those grey buttons that makes me nostalgic of those clicky types.

There are really only 2 Compaq branded keyboards worth looking for.
One is the Compaq 185152-001 (G80-11800LPAUS), usually several on ebay at anytime average for $30ish.
Two is the Compaq 185367-001 (G80-1838HPU), good luck on that one.
