Anyway it's still not the most I've seen someone pay for a keyboard.
Weren't these prices commonplace a couple of years ago?
Prices on truly scarce and desirable gear tends to "roller-coaster" considerably over the years, from my observations.
From what I've seen on expired Yahoo Auctions, last year they were going for 20k-30k yen. There was one in January this year for around 50k yen. And now this
My theory is that people in the west got more exposure to these boards this year, partly owing to DT as well, and now they are treated like an even rarer SSK with an added bonus of a short spacebar. (At least I didn't even know these existed until some two months ago. But then, again, I didn't know a lot of stuff back then
)

I adore the aesthetics of the M0110.
If you live in the UK, you might want to pair it with this:

is this the version of the SGI that has the PBT dyesub alps caps?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Silicon-Graphic ... 1582972920
NIB, but no cable...however I think for people after the keycaps that wouldn't matter.

All the SGI bigfoot's have dye subs, that one "speaks" the SGI protocol though not ps/2, look at the part number:

That's awesome, I've never seen a Model M dust cover.

Looks pretty generic to me... Also, the board has not seen a lot of cover over the years

Some of the legends appear to be brown -- interesting. In addition, they appear to be a hair thicker than most run of the mill cheap doubleshots.

That's from Blaise's Japanese haul.

Ah yeah, I didn't look at the seller's name. Nice one Blaise.

Reasonably priced Hall effect board that I think someone posted earlier:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/222053066936
Please, someone buy it, and save me from myself! I already have enough Hall effect project boards.

Which are you referring to? They all look white to me. If I need to I'll retake some photos, but they all looked white to me.

Some Cherry clone switches (other Qtronix boards have had PBT... maybe this does). Maybe swap out the switches if you like the G80-like layout.

Logitech with missing keys still available. Great price for a fullsize board with Cherry MX Browns.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/222066559207
Another meh gaming board, has genuine Cherry MX Blues though. Razer tournament, decent price.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/262354308465
If you've ever wanted to try out Keytronic magnetic reed, now is your chance. Expensive though.

Interesting. I work IT for a Company with gas stations. Most of them use Gilbarco gas pumps. We don't have anything that old (or cool).

Quoted the wrong keyboard. Derpa derp. I meant to quote Ramnes.

Designed for the PCjrr, apparently sold ~1986. The "G" key is interesting-- the rounded font reminds of Cherry doubleshots, but not as bold.

Nice find! Looks very Cherry-ish, indeed. I'd love to see what's underneath.

Looks almost but not quite like these keycaps:

My guess is blue Alps, but it could be anything.

I'm calling Cherry switches on the Datadesk.

Well you did quote Ramnes, but the keyboard is mine.
That's a rubberdome by the way.

Just found this and snapped it up. Alps SKCL Yellow. Look at all those windowed keys! Unfortunately for my wallet...

I guess 70€ is not a terrible deal, depending on what you're after.
Since those G80 3000s are not really a joy to type on, one might as well go with the even cheaper G80 1800s instead

Depends, these seem to be in a very good condition. The ones from cumb.de are all pretty yellowed and generally not in the best shape.
