was wondering if anybody had one of these that could provide a picture with the key cap off?
i know its a rubber dome, but was curious how much different to the dell quiet key switch it is?
-
the way the switch looks isn't special.. it's just a slider protruding from the molded plastic housing.
It's the domes underneath that is special
They're higher quality. Thick, and more rigid.
-
like any of these or more like the dell quiet key would u say?
-
I had a 101R once, pretty sure that it was rubber dome. Sold it to a bloke in Australia, I would not consider it worth the shipping cost, which was much less back then but still $40-50.
Don't bother unless it is really cheap, opt for the original QuietKey instead, that is a very nice board, and probably much cheaper.

i have a quiet key that i swap out on my office desk when i need to be quiet, but the keys are pretty shiny and the legends are getting worn
i actually do not mind the quiet keys that much, for a rd not to shabby

That's how I got mine. I felt lucky to break even getting rid of it, but the buyer seemed genuinely happy.
