White as in beige/grey or just plain white?

Should be white board with white and beige caps.

Thanks. So just to confirm, like the one on the right rather than the left?

It says on the article from which the picture is taken, that the 87uw 55g is the right one.

Mine looks like the one on the right, and is beige, not white.

I have a KeyCool TKL which is whiter than white, and has PBT keycaps.  They are really white.  Everything else I have is beige in comparison.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
