I think the brown spots could be mostly rust.

Keyboards / Are those switches dampened white alps?
« Last post by Latakerni on Mon, 17 July 2023, 12:02:14 »Are those genuine alps? They're in a Apple Extended Keyboard II, 1995 Ireland.
I am not sure if it's ivory or white (I just know that they'll need a good clean and lubing). They look white-ish, or at least what I think white should look like after nearly 30 years, but they seem to have tiny slits, smaller than the deskthority pictures
https://deskthority.net/wiki/Alps_SKCM_Cream_Damped vs https://deskthority.net/wiki/Alps_SKBL/SKBM_series, and alps logo is barely visible, without raised edges

geekhack, being under the Drop umbrella, was included in the purchase. We expect no changes to geekhack for the time being, but will of course share if/when that changes.
