Any idea what switches are here ?

I can tell you what it isn't, and that's a low profile Topre. Shame, it kinda looks like one...

Well if it was going to be anything, it was going to be that. Thought I'd rule it out.

Okay, so here's what I think it is: a rubber dome :)

Are you going to get mad if I double post again?

FTFY.

I'm not mad. I was simply pointing out you're acting a bit off today.

Tell you what, if you can correctly ascertain that the keyboard in the OP is a Fujitsu/Topre dome I'll be the #100 vote.

I thought this was a low profile Topre.

Then what kind of Topre did you post above mine? Medium profile?

I don't know why they'd do that. It'd be like Maccas bringing out a burger in their product line that slotted between the Cheesy and the Quarter Pounder (Royale with Cheese for countries that use the metric system).

I see it's low profile, that's why I was interested. It looks like the ML key caps.
Now, is it dome or mechanical ?
