I have one really odd II+ with words printed below each letter on each key. R has RUN printed below it, P has PRINT, S has SAVE, L has LOAD, B has BLOAD etc. You activate each word with a function key occupying the 'missing key' space on the keyboard layout and it would save a ton of time typing these words, if you are programming the II+. The slots on the back of the case are barely big enough for ribbon cables to emerge and there are a number of eproms on the motherboards.

That's definitely a clone.  The "macro" keyboards were a common
substitution.

I figured as much. The case was a little too different to be a real Apple and there are no identification markings on the exterior of the case. I never considered it to be worth anything and kept it just as a conversation piece at our user group meetings years ago.
