Can anybody shed some light on this? The cross-shaped arrow keys, the font and the LED on the 'caps lock' key remind me of some AMSTRADS (this and this). Does this layout look familiar at all?

The manufacturer is 'AWA', but I suspect this is rebranded.

Also, note the interesting spring-loaded legs on the back:

Yes they are interesting.
I'm not sure I follow you - 'oye'?
Are you saying this keyboard was made by keytronics? If so, how can you tell?

Thanks

Judging by the position of the caps lock LED and the shape of the keycaps, I believe this to be a keytronics switch based keyboard. Heightwise it would have to be the foam and foil variant. Not 100% sure, of course.

Thanks! Looking through some pictures of keytronics boards, I think I agree.
