Probably white complicateds. (http://geekhack.org/showpost.php?p=137272&postcount=26) Post seems to point to double shots too.

Single row enter key + full sized backspace! Rare combo with white Alps boards.

ALPS switches would be so nice if they didn't wear out.

Well, there's a lot of room for improvement for Alps switches. Notably, better dust sealing, a less frictiony mechanism, and a plunger design with less wobble.
