I don't know much about old keyboards..

Honeywell. I believe they're rubber dome, don't think I've seen one disassembled.  Like the caps though.

Yea, the caps do look pretty nice

Anyone know if these could be Hall Effect?  Never had a Hall Effect board in hand, but I think most state "micro switch" on the back.

I have one in the mail that I think is a Hall Effect board, but have not received it yet to know for sure, but the caps do look similar in shape and font:

That one also says Assembled in Mexico, so I'd say there's still a chance that these could be Hall Effect as well maybe and they just left off the "Micro Switch" part? 

Seller just needs to pull a cap to tell us more.

I still haven't heard about a reliable (at least easy to implement) modern controller for Hall Effect boards, so having one like this that already outputs AT or XT that can be converted with a Soarer's Converter would be AWESOME.

If you only had the terminal those things attached to.  You can determine what speed/protocol the keyboards used.  Usually VT type serial.  (If they are not AT or XT)

Ok, so some more research indicates that pretty much all of Honeywell's boards were made in Mexico, and most of the Honeywell boards on ebay have similar fonts and caps, so I guess that might not count for much, could still be though.  Looks like 3 have sold so far and there were originally 50 available, so if someone gets one, they'll have to let us know!

I am pretty sure it is AT.  If you look at the template on it, it is for MS word.  Since it has Num and Scroll lock key indicators, it is probably an AT keyboard with an XT layout.  That is my guess.

I can pretty much guarantee that it's rubber dome and Honeywell.  I've seen that board pop up a few times and went searching for info on it.  All things point toward RD.

I got the seller to send me a picture:

It has very old adaptor. It should has long history.
