Here's the distinct Macintosh Portable keyboards I have that are on my Macintosh Portables. One of them had the mouse replaced with a keypad (they were interchangeable). The other thing you could do with the keyboard is swap the keyboard/mouse and have the mouse (or keypad) on the left instead of on the right. Very cool design.
Here are the pics of the three distinct ones I have (A, B and C). Note all three keyboards have different color switches

Ha, its the Apple Alps palette. Very nice. Those orange sliders look more orange than the ones in my Wang 725-3770, possibly just your pics.

From very light salmon to orange, nice. Do they feel any different tho? I'm guessing it's the same switch, just more colouring in the platic?

Three different switches. The cream one I'm guessing is cream damped, as regular cream is a paler, less saturated shade.darkholypl wrote: ↑From very light salmon to orange, nice. Do they feel any different tho? I'm guessing it's the same switch, just more colouring in the platic?
Interestingly the machine came out in 1989, the year everything changed.
