Doubleshot with clears?  Unusual board.

Some of the details seem unusual (see the connections area) so I wouldn't count on an accurate model number without checking. This would be rather expensive if it turned out to be a plain 11900 with Cherry black switches.

Check it out here:

Seems that it really does have a serial interface as well as PS/2 (looks like the board is PS/2 keyboard + PS/2 mouse, then they ship a PS/2-AT adapter for the keyboard part and PS/2 to Serial for the mouse. Interesting looking board - hopefully those are double-shot keys (the Winkeys look more muted than the others, so I suspect they are).

That is assuming that the eBay listing is really the same, and they haven't just copied the details for any old G80-11900xxxxx without realising that those last few letters do matter.

I'd demand a refund if I ordered an H board and it wasn't double shots.

Looks like the Buy it Now was a error on the Seller's part, as he's apparently changed it to regular bidding only. No one's bid yet, with starting bids at $41.74 (odd number) and a little under $11 shipping.
