Topre and Clear MX both have the long, gradual tactile curve [...] when it comes to weight, Browns are closer to Topre- they're both light-ish and ergonomic. which is why I recommended Ergoclears. The light spring of browns with the tactility of clears. It's the closest you can get to Topres with M...

Despite both being tactile MX switches, Browns and Clears are worlds apart. Even comparing different flavors of MX switch can be like apples and oranges... So, If this is the case, pitting against one another MX switches to Topre is like... comparing an elephant to a... field of petunias? But I'll t...

The wiki has brown down as tactile. Does this mean that brown has been used for both tactile and linear? I've added that page to the wiki with a reference. I trust you that they're genuine Alps ;-) (they look to be it, but there are a few two-tab clones out there including SMK) You need to post all...

If you ask me, it LOOKS every bit as solid and well-engineered as the Realforce. It's a rubber dome over membrane. The realforce in rubberdome over capasative switch. It's what makes it good and reliable. Ah, nevermind. I thought it was a rubber dome over a special kinda slider with a spring protru...

I've been infatuated with the Libertouch since it was released. I've always been a fan of that particular style of switching mechanism, which kinda sucks, 'cause it never caught on anywhere. If you ask me, it LOOKS every bit as solid and well-engineered as the Realforce. Replacable parts, dude. If i...

I generally prefer the Cherry Corp stabilizers, but I totally understand why the costar style seems to be more popular. With costar, you can't even tell there's a stabilizer there. They add like, no friction.. I can see the value of that. Wouldn't it be nice if someone designed and implimented an im...

Speaking only for BLUE switches, I gotta admit that the older ones were nicer. I've done side-by-side comparisons with the following 2 keyboards: 1989 West German made G80-1800 w/Blues (NIB) 2009 Czech made G80-3000 w/Blues (NIB) Appearance-wise, the only difference is the shade of blue; the vintage...

IMHO blues are godawful for FPS games. All these gaming companies releasing keyboards with blues... It's bound to turn people off from mechanical keyboards in general. FPS gamers (most of the good ones, anyhow) will absolutely hate the reset point on blue switches. Since they're not necessarily keyb...
