Title: G80-1950PPAXB
Post by: ebacho on Wed, 12 March 2014, 02:36:04

Cherry matrix board.  Browns I think? 

These look like they're in pretty beat up condition though; I remember a bunch a couple years ago going for about this price but were NIB.

I've always wanted to to go around to the stores I know use old mechanical cash register boards and just ask if I can have them if they ever throw them away.

Maybe one day I can have a Coke and Candy button like all the cool kids :P

should be browns, NKRO, LOTS of relegendables.

Oh, and probably the worst POS programming software there is.

I think the matrix is unpluggable like on a lot of other cherry boards. I recommend plugging it to a teensy and using it with a "real "controller.

If not, break out the de-soldering pump (optional.. I've de-soldered without), soldering iron, wires and solder :D
