This has cherry switches, could be linear whites.

I believe the one you linked to has Marquardt linear switches. I've been looking for a cheap one to play with for a while now.

It’s a very different type of keycap than the typewriters with this switch have:

Is there another linear Marquardt switch you’re thinking of?
