Posting something I bought on a whim a long time ago...back when I had limited knowledge and was just starting to get into mechanical keyboards. Bx has been sitting on my shelf untouched for a while now.
First off, this board is only PC/XT compatible.
A pretty box: All original paperwork including manual, warranty card, and marketing standup cardboard thingy: Inside of marketing booklet: Features: The Board itself: Closeup of keys...wait, could that be dye subs????
Here is where it gets interesting! The board has both ANSI and DVORAK preprogrammed...which means that the caps had to able to be physically interchanged without problems...the entire alpha block has the same profile, close to Cherry profile. Pictures below.
G,T, and Y are from the Smartline, the other caps are "regular" Cherry Dyesubs for comparison. Closeup of switches. Old blacks with diodes:
