It's just a Filco Camo with a Atari 520ST skin, why don't you do it yourself?

I'm still waiting for laptops to start coming with mechanical keyboards.

I know it's "just" a Filco Camo and an ST shell (both mine). I was cleaning a recently obtained ST, and one thing led to another. I didn't think anyone would take it literal, instead of it's intent as a light hearted conversation starter....

There were some Atari models that were MX keyboards. I don't remember which ones anymore though, but might be something for you to look into.

That would be sweet! I would definitely consider a laptop with cherry-like switches. Not a fan of the scissors type.

Laptop KB would be too big and bulky. There are some good scissor switches  out there.
