I couldn't find that one either, though it does show that Mitac used some ALPS switches in their keyboards (as rebranded Focus products). This one is probably from the early-mid-90's and I would say it looks mechanical if not for the very shallow keycaps, but it's possible that ALPS keycaps are just much shorter than MX ones. Might as well give it a go.

it's like my friend said, he said it's ALPS switch or not also, because he couldn't find a keyboard similar to this. I hope someone has seen a keyboard like this or has it and unfortunately the seller doesn't understand how to open the keycaps, so I also don't know what this keyboard is until Saturday tomorrow.
