Can someone help me Identify this board?

Seems to be some type of vintage XT layout board? I never knew cherrys were used back in the XT days.

Probably the same as in this recent thread:

Help: Identifying keyboard

It does follow the general XT pattern, with a slight change to the number pad. Cherry has been in the keyboard game practically forever. The first MX switches apparently came out way back in 1983, and the X in MX means 10, so there were 9 previous iterations.
