Daewoo IBM model M clones?

[mrog]

Just found some Daewoo DTC-4000 UK keyboards and wondered what the deal was?

I realize that after the popularity of the model M there were a lot of clones... but these seem like complete replicas, Same caps, same stem (same buckling spring) - if it wernt for the Daewoo logo it would be identical in every way I can conceive.

I have two of the keyboards here - neither have a back label.

I'll take them home and compare directly to be sure.

What does it say on the label?

It is not necessarily a clone. Model M's were OEM:d. Ambra and Dell are two that I know of.

Nothing on the back - some sticky where the usual IBM back label would have gone.

IBM clones? That'll be the Daewoo.

So clone or OEM'ed?

[Daemon Raccoon]

That looks like an OEM'd 42H-style Model M.

Open the board with your handy 5.5 mm or 7/32th inch hex driver and look at the PCB. Pretty sure youve got a greenock produced OEM.

looks OEM to me, the caps 2pc or 1 pc ? They look too rounded on the edge to be 1pc and not round enough to be 2pc.

( this is from observation of 1 pc F caps with 2 pc M )
