Two switch two unit key
« on: Fri, 18 July 2014, 16:05:41 »
Does this exist? Caps lock seems to be the largest non-stabilized key, but it only has one switch for it since it's typically 1.5. Anything 2 or more seems to always have stabilizers. Are there 2 wide keys which just have two switches connected into them, without stabilizers? Like say, backspace.

Yes, on matrix keyboards like Tipro.

Thanks.

I would have posted there, if I knew it existed. Link?

A guy posted this precise question at Deskthority very recently:
