Am I missing the "those?"  It looks like different angles of the same keyboard to me.

sidewinder previously posted pictures of another DK Saver (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:7272).

A slightly older post of Ripster's (http://geekhack.org/showpost.php?p=90473&postcount=16) pointed me to a mention in the English section of KBDMania (http://www.kbdmania.net/xe/english/612052).  That also got me a search link for the 356-series (http://www.kbdmania.net/xe/?mid=photo&category=&search_target=title&search_keyword=356) keyboard kits (356CL, etc.), which I bent into a search for the DK Saver boards (http://www.kbdmania.net/xe/?mid=photo&category=&search_target=title&search_keyword=dk%20saver).  (I think I'm going to be spending some quality time with automatically translated text soon.)

I think those are really nice-looking boards, and would love to know more about them.

Sure they do.  One is treatment for the other.

Excellent, thank you all for the information... I have been working on my own custom board using salvaged parts... We should be able to get together as a group, combining a few posts regarding controllers, layouts, keys, and switches to put together a very nice diy kit similar to this...

Very nice. I am curious.. why did you replace Y and X with different keycaps? is it just random or related to something?
