Title: Apple A1048 switches are similar to which Cherry MX switch?
Post by: oldCrow on Wed, 22 February 2012, 10:17:22

Has anyone used both the Apple A1048 keyboard and Cherry MX switches?  If so, what Cherry switch is most similar to the ones in the A1048? (obviously going to be a linear one as the Apple kb has no click or tactile).  In terms of actuation force and travel and overall feel, does it come close to Cherry reds or blacks?

Man I'm not a fan of Cherry but even rubber cherries feel better than that.
