Looks nice!
I didn't get it because I just got the other one and I've already spent too much money on keyboards this year ;)

Yeah I wanted them so bad but this close to Christmas I have to buy adult things, I do have little kids and all that. But it just so happens that my conversion works perfectly with this type of Microswitch so if you would like to use it with a modern computer it should be no problem. My firmware works with that board right out of the box so you won't even need to mess with the key-map. Just pop out the Intel chip from its cradle and wire the Teensy. I used male to female jumpers and drove the male end directly into the cradle where the old 8048 went. Its a beautiful board I might see if I can get you to take some detailed pics of the case so I can fabricate my own, my board didn't come with a case, or those nice relegendable key caps.

Here are the links to my writeup and the hex and source for this type of MicroSwitch SD Board

If you do end up using it just let me know how it goes I love seeing an old SD board come back to life.
