I don't believe it does. Also, I think the mods are actually doubleshot, unlike a G81-8000.

Yeah, that one has a BIGASS Enter. He has another one for sale with JRET for $115

This keyboard you can use right away. No Moogle kit needed! If you are lucky, it comes with n-key rollover.

If you want to use the key caps on a Filco, they should fit, as it is one of the rare keyboards with center-stem Caps Lock.

Also, if it where cheaper, I'd take one, but currently I'm bankrupt.

It is worth it!
Just shipping to Europe is so expensive ...

:-(

In the picture it is ISO-layout, L-shape return.

Why on earth are the keyboards always at the wrong place?

It won't fit on a Filco, Leopold, or similar, no. Maybe on a SS 6Gv2 or 7G.

7bit, ISO JRET is for Europe. ANSI with BIGASS Enter is for Asia, correct?

Yes. Nevertheless, it comes with a J-shape return (as in the picture). But there are variants with m-shape (ANSI) return.

The rest of the keys should fit.

You can see the |\ key left of the J-shape return.

No worries. I didn't see it when I originally looked at it either.

You would need both an ANSI Enter key and an ANSI \| key. Can't tell if the caps lock is stepped or not.

If you look at the legend on the capslock key, it appears to be unstepped to me. (doesn't the stepped one have caps and lock broken across another line? Either way, the legend seems to go too far over for it to be stepped)

I like the keys to the right of the tenkey: It wasn't enough to have that, there's even more!

I didn't see the normal ISO enter until I looked for the |\ key and didn't see it at first. Then I looked again and saw the |\ key, and extrapolated the ISO enter existence from there.

Is it possible if anybody of you can check if they have n-key rollover (some have)?

Asking the seller to remove one key cap and take a photo, so the diode is visible would be helpful.

Would be interested if it had n-key rollover.

The Caps Lock keys are all un-stepped at this series of keyboards.

ps: Maybe your should use the ISO layout as a reason to push the price down a bit.

These keyboards (grey, no n-key rollover) sold for around 200 EUR (~$250), so they are not really overpriced even if shipping to Europe is considered.

You guys do realize that the 8113/8200/8000 boards are what I sell my doubleshots and switches from right? 8113/8200 are both n-key rollover if they have PS/2, and 2?-key rollover if they have USB. At least that's how it's been for me. The capslock keys are the ones I don't sell when I part them out to people who need to replace a few shiny keys. I'm thinking about selling another brand new DS bottom row... Do I really need these 5 sets? The last time I sold one was in February.
