G81 MY switches, pretty much trash. Somebody harvested the keys, HBU = doubleshot gold.

G81-1138, eh. It's a Star Wars keyboard !

Can I guess that the key caps are in Finnish/Swedish layout? I would not mind having them.
Only the key caps have some value. The rest is .. well ... Not many people like the feel of the MY switches.

I have most of the keycaps. Few are missing, but almost all letters are there.

The keycaps do have Ä/Ö, but they're in the side of the keycap. The top of the keycap has normal US layout. You do see the Ä/Ö still.

I took those G81 MY German National Treasures, raped them for the keys,  and promptly threw them in the trash.

I should have kept one switch for pictures.[/I]



I have. Those stobborn MY keypads will never give up so easily, at least not those RETURN, SHIFT and BACKSPACE keys. Those four legs rendered them pretty useless for me. MY stabilizer sucks. But luckily this sort of stabilizer only occurs in G81-1800 line.

So this keyboard is basically worth nothing? Should I just throw it away with the keycaps ?
