Title: Cherry Part Number (G83-6175LPNGB /01 part number)
Post by: o0002 on Fri, 30 January 2015, 13:22:26

Hi everyone,

I've found a keyboard with a cherry symbol on the back and the following part number G83-6175LPNGB /01. I've read on the forum that some cherry G83s are rubbish. Does anybody have any idea whether this particular keyboard is worth getting? I don't have physical access to the keyboard so I can't check the keys (as much as I would love too ;D). Anyway here's a pic of the back label:
