One of the folks on the
Great/Interesting Finds said that someone should buy this keyboard, so I did. I'm definitely not disappointed with the buy. It's the first Space Invaders keyboard I've ever tried. It's definitely not bad.
This will not be a keyboard I keep for myself. I like my Model M miles (kilometers) more and I think I like my Matias Ergo Pro at least 50% more. As mentioned elsewhere, my hobby is repairing OK keyboards. This one needs very little done, as far as I can tell. I'll clean it up and put it on ebay. Or see if I can post here for a trade.

Back label.
Space Invaders! Hi-Tek Grey. "Two eye." Non-clicky. I don't really feel a tactile bump.
A cap came off with the top housing, so here's the spring. IIRC, there are a couple different kinds that were used.
Space Invaders become neon green when they drink at the Space Bar.
PCB Model Number and details. Metal mounting plate.
Controller chip.
Anyone know what "Solder Direction" means?

This board uses at least 3 different thickness caps. Left to right: red, white, blue cap; W key; spacebar.
Really bowed keycap set.
There are stabilizers on the spacebar, enter key, both shift keys, numeric pad enter key, and numeric pad + key.
