Guys, thanks a lot for the answers! I will try to post a bit more on the board but I am finishing my thesis right now so I am a bit busy to make a good review. I founded on a second hand Italian web-site, it feels like a cheap board and it's quite light (def below 1 kg). But the switches are outstan...

An Omnikey 101 (great case and NKRO), and Orange switches (correct spring weight and switch plate) with pine white click leaves, will get you a really nice board that is mostly indistinguishable from Alps Blues if it is clean. You could combine an AEK I and an Omnikey to get this. It would probably...

Could be Hi-Tek Series 725 but I'm not sure really. https://deskthority.net/wiki/Hi-Tek_Series_725 I think you're right, seebart. The caps look very similar to space-invaders boards. Almost impossible to tell for sure this way. I don't like these guesses. Guys thanks a lot, I did not want to upset ...

Basically they're like rubberdomes with old, stiffened rubber — the keys have to be hit really hard to get them to register. I never saw the hatred people have for these switches [...] a lot better than anything MX-like IMO. I did not like them at all exactly for the reson that Daniel is using, and...

Dear all,
This is an x-post I made on reddit.
I have collected some photos of this horrible keyboard http://imgur.com/a/hCHvm
And I have made a video of the sound of the switches https://youtu.be/PyjT6mZUEkM

It should be in the region of 140-180 GBP depending on how much it rattles. I personally not buy a blue label one, the older ones are muuuuuch better (IMHO)
