You want a space cadet? Well your best bet is to rob a museum. They don't come up for sale all that often.

Hint: The interesting thing about the Knight keyboard are the keycaps.

The shape of the case seems similar but that's relative. Anyway these are Micro Switch SW series switches which are nicer than SD series.

Realistically how much should this SW series board go for?

This guy won't function. It has missing keycaps. There is no converter.
So unless function means try-tiping on it, I wouldn't recommend this to you.

No idea, something like this does not show often which does not mean it will go crazy high. But why should you care when you got $$$$$$$$.....
Slom is right BTW, Micro Swtich keyboards have NOT been converted AFAIK. It's just decoration for now.

I thought they could be converted to USB?
I am not getting lost, I AM HERE TO STAY!!!!!!!!!! MWHAHHAHAAA!!!

Cherry G81-3000SPD (German dye-subs?): condition and price doesn't look great though, not sure what's up with the F and J keys.

Nope, they can't. This is not your micro switch gateway drug ... this is the dirty stuff for the allready addicted

Oh yeah I see it now, I thought they both had very similar dents to them! I really does look like someone has put a line of glue on the keycaps to make ghetto homing bars

Dorkvader has converted at least a few hall effect boards, so can be done at least with some variants. I think I recall seeing XMIT working on something too. Apparently some versions will work as normal switches. I have not looked into it myself though. It's on the to do list

Where the hell is Dorkvader?
