It was a pain for me to find a good quality photo for one of these, so I figure I should take some. ;) I didn't take any pictures of the bottom of the case mainly because the case isn't original and is from the Chinese dyesub variant, but anyways...

Enjoy! :D

Awesome pics and an awesome keyboard, thanks for sharing. Can you use it on a modern computer as is, or did you need to convert it?

Absolutely stunning. :shock: I can't say I've ever seen a debossed caps lock logo.

You do need a converter, yes. I've heard it uses Set 3 with a weird pinout, but I'm not entirely sure. The board acts weird with break codes though, so it wouldn't have been very useful.
