I was looking at that bottom one the other day. What is the deal with the white/orange stem inserts?

Are you sure that the top one has Alps? Those are some funky keys.

How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

There are two types of these IIGS keyboards. This type is PBT caps and orange Alps. The other type is thick double-shot ABS caps and white SMK switches. You can tell it’s the PBT version because the spacebar is still ABS so it yellows, while the other caps don’t.
