What are these keyboards?
« on: Wed, 17 December 2014, 15:42:33 »
Hello guys,
does anybody know which keyboards these are and if they are worth buying?

Well first one is from NMB Technologies Inc, Hi-Tek keyboard Division, obviously.
Does it use the Hi-Tek switches? Is it worth getting it?



And for the second one, I do not have any idea what this thing is .... Does anybody know?

The first one is rubberdome. Still waiting on the "community" to pull together and make some progress in confirming which of the RT100/RT6000 series use sliders.

The Fujitsu FKB4700 uses "Peerless" switches; I am not familiar with the FKB4800 — it's not a well-known model at all. It's worth a few quid for research purposes (to collect solely to photograph and document on the wiki) but I don't sense that it's worth much more.

Wasn't FKB4800 a rubber dome?

Rubber dome is pretty much a given here for the Fujitsu, but what's not clear is whether it's a Peerless variant (clicky), or a plain rubber dome, or some other dome+slider design — it's not a common keyboard at all, hence its small value for research purposes.

Even if it is the peerless, they aren't much of a switch. I tried a board with peerless switches before I got into keyboards, almost turned me away from mech boards altogether.

The plate and keycaps may look promising, but it's an ordinary rubber dome, with nearly linear travel IIRC.

OTOH, I don't mind the peerless switches (and Acer clicky switches, and…).
