Costed me a pretty penny but i think it was worth it.
In box:

Plugged in (calculator working fine)

Alps clones with linear yellow alps for LED.

My only two problems is that its one of the those hybrid ISO/ANSI boards, a fact which i find somewhat annoying for some reason. And the fact that the alps clones feel somewhat stiff compared to the blue alps board i'm used to.
But other than that i consider it a great find.

Full-size shifts and Backspace would keep me very happy with this one. Big ass Enter is no particular problem.

I was talking more about the < and * key being between ctr and alt, but like i said, its just something i personally find annoying for some reason.

Reminds me of the Monterey K104.

I've got one, remember?

Well not Swe/Fin, but still in box and everything, I got it off Cindy. The calc on mine soon stopped working though - cheap electronics, as always with Focus xD .
Still, a very nice find, I've always liked these Focus boards

Nope, I would not know honestly! For all I know you could have a "throne" of these NIB like photekq's G80 throne.

Haha ah fair enough, I did a review about it, but it was ages ago - May 2015 apparently xD .
