Cherry ML?

What is interesting is that Filco has boards with brown Cherry MX switches, which are supposed to be tactile, with a definite make point, but not loud and clicky. Though it seems the boards are all  full-size.

I have seen boards identical to the one I linked to with full sized Alps switches before, so I doubt they put the MLs in it.

I don't even know if this company ships to the US, but their 'boards are very respected in Japan and most of free Asia. They like these and the realtouch jobs a lot. Kinda makes me wan to try one ...
