Mei yucky linears. As opposed to "meh".

Chalk another one up for ...

I think I'm gonna AHK this quote.

In fact i just searched that review just now b4 I post this thread and feel more wonder on the switch on that keyboard(the picture quality not clear enough to show me even there is a Cherry MX alike stem on it).

BTW, nice circuit board the datalux have there, like a racing circuit...

Also, there is how many variant(in term of switch) of Datalux SSK available out there? Just now search through Taobao found mostly Cherry ML and the strange switch just now, any Cherry MX?

Wow. Someone has an ego.

On-topic: Is it just me, or are those keys rather loose on their stems, or their stems loose on the switch?

My modesty is one of my best features.

It's interesting to see that you're admitting that you have no redeeming characteristics.

Found some update/info on the ''transformer'' switch in the picture. They called it 黑脸愤怒熊(blackface angry bear)

Also take a look at the strange spring used in it(joining 2 switch)

It is having clickly(note the small white stem thing)

and non clicky variant(no the white thing)

EDIT: Oh wait, just note that the face of both switch isn't the same...

LOL i dont own one of it. That's why i am seeking opinion and details of it here.
Wonder if it worth to spend about 30USD for it(postage almost half of it for postage...)?

The clicky ones are supposed to be similar to Cherry blues. Should thus be pretty nice. Their main weakness is them being a bit fragile, they require a bit of a special keycap removal technique to avoid damage.

i bought a black datalux and the switches are horrible. first they are linear but end up tactile near bottoming out. the keys are really small and the layout isn't bad, but the overall quality is bad. weight is light. i like the look but not to type on.

the keyboardmodel is TORGC and it's called the Space Saver Keyboard.
