I bought this ADC branded at clone cherry board about a month ago, i would not have suspected it was a g80 when i bought it, and i mostly got it for the f keys and the control key and expected it to be a generic keyboard that used cherry caps and switches, but today i finally got around to opening it up, and to my surprise, it was a g80-0647, something i have not seen in the past! as a cherry collector this minor discovery made my eyes light up

MX Black Dummy Switch Stabilizer

Standard beautiful mx doubleshots

Rubber dampeners at the bottom of the case that the keyboard rests on.

Strangely, The case very closely resembles a kimtron made keyboard, the back side is nearly identical! (did not have time to take a picture of ^^;) The case and other components may very well be made by kimtron but the pcb being labeled as a g80 intrigued me. I do not often see vintage g80s with a plate in them but this thing is built to last!

sorry if the formatting is bad, and sorry if i wasted your time, but i felt like showing this find I got!

Nice find. These true at-style boards are fairly rare, we've seen quite a few of xt-style boards recently but not too many at ones.
