Should be Black tactile NMB Hi-Tek (Space Invaders).  It also has a nifty split spacebar.

I've never tried the blacks. How do they compare to the typical whites?

Wat! First split spacebar on that seems sweet.  Secondly  windows keys, that blows my mind.  @ Engicoder,  I've never tried whites but I'm a fan of blacks.  Very crisp clicky and heavy.  Feel heavier to me than IBM or F, with a somewhat similar sound to IBM M keyboards.  Maybe that will help you, since I have no Idea about white space invaders.
