When did Cherry stabilisers change from screw-in to clip-in?
My mid '98 1800 has clip-ins, that's currently my oldest G80.
Did both types coexist for a while?
Did Cherry start using them in their own keyboards and still offer the old type as a stand-alone product?
Did some OEM work with them on this for some exclusitivity deal (think MX speed)?
Was one of them more of a Hirose thing?
Did they start of with two types that boiled down into one common type (think plate mount vs. PCB mount)?
Would they still sell me newly made screw-in stabilisers if I ordered a large enough quantity (think MX Lock)?
