Post by: SamirD on Fri, 29 January 2016, 00:38:58: I hate to bump an older thread, but I too was wondering about the kb3270+ and ran into this excellent page that tells you all you wanted to know about it:
http://www.seasip.info/VintagePC/kb3270.html

According to the page, the switches are more than likely foam and foil.
