Title: Leading Edge Model M keyboard "8815K" review (Keytek inductive)
Post by: chyros on Sat, 02 February 2019, 03:49:25

Today we look at what appears to be a very rare keyboard with a very rare switch design. Also, there's a fair bit of history behind this one. Hope you enjoy the video! :)

I bet that keyboard has an actuation point similar to a rubber dome.  :))

Yes, I think so too - which must be one of the reasons why they feel so disappointing!

Oh yes, these ought to last for ages. There's basically nothing to wear out xD .
