Title: Can I get an ID on this?
Post by: oTurtlez on Mon, 06 August 2012, 10:10:22
I found what appears to be a Cherry made tenkey with all MX Black switches. What's weird about it is the stock key cap set on it, and the label that was on the actual device. Here are some pics.

Any ideas or value? Let me know. The picture of the top of it, with the two wires, one of them is a direct ps/2 to the computer and the other is a ps/2 port to connect your keyboard to like a pass through. It works 100% and my Model M connected to it does as well.

Since it is missing the original Cherry keycap I think $15. See here (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=33321.0), same model.

Yeah it's a G80-3700.

However, they are lots of them, so check out if it's a mode4 or not (which means all the keys are programmable). (check out deskthority's wiki page).

I think you can ask 20$ if it isn't a mod4, and 30 if it is.

To me, the beige keycaps look cherry (Lasered?), and the others look SP (More rounded edge). Is there any way to get a look at the bottoms of the keycaps?

Bottom of the key caps as requested.

The left two are; Grey (Blank top), Orange (#), and the right one is the 8. All of the numbers and the num lock have the black and beige bars on the bottom.

EDIT: I can put it into mode 4 so I assume that it is an older one that is fully programmable.

Why'd you need / want the bottom key cap shot?

To confirm whether they were DS or lasered... they are doubleshot.

I'm guessing that's a good thing hehe. The funny thing is, someone threw this beauty out at the local public works. I picked her up and gave her a new home for free :D It does have full programmability, which was nice to learn as well.
