How are the ML- Switches? are they clicky? i just found a store here in Portugal that seems to have some Cherry keyboards, they have the G84-4100, they say it has MX switches but at the european cherry site they say ML switches.....

Nope.  They're the "semi-mechanical" ones- a membrane with a spring over it.  Keyboards with the MX switches will start with G80, and ML-switched boards will start with G84.

There is a G80-1800 keyboard that looks the same, but has the MX switches.

Well done!  I can't believe I didn't spot the G81 in the model number. Wishful thinking, I guess. This one should have linear feel.

They don't click.

So what switches so the G80 American keyboards have? and are the "MX gold crosspoint" switches the blue sliders?

Not necessarily. The Deck keyboards brag about their Cherry MX gold crosspoint switches, and we all know they're black linear.
