Title: Cherry MX G80 3800 and 3850
Post by: NDA on Sun, 19 May 2013, 19:57:23

Hi,

I finally found a couple more keyboards with the MX green keys but I am not sure what the difference is between these two models.

Is the only difference between them that one is corded and the other has a removable cord. I tried doing a google search to find a spec sheet or something on these keyboards but came up empty handed.

I would also like to know what the cheapest place is to get these keyboards I found a web site for the g80 3800 but not the 3850.

Thanks.

One thing I notice: the Chinese in the picture says "青轴", which I believe means blue switch but not green switch.

Literally means "Green Axis", but actually refers to the Blue switch.
