I discovered recently that my Ducky Shines with MX blues have an MX green under the spacebar.  I hadn't even noticed :))

Sneaky sneaky, what about the Enter?

Generally, if a keyboard does mix switches, it's only the spacebar. I've never seen a heavier switch on the enter

@The_Beast Yeah, my Ti spacebar is way too heavy for my TypeNow Solid. I need to install an MX Grey under it.

From what I recall - blue.  The one here at work won't come off :))
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I have boards with a heavier enter (bigass Cherry), but only because there are 2 damn switches in there. Bastards! Two blacks is crazy.

my g80-2100 had a big ass enter, with 2 black switches in there.

one of them was fake, no spring. just a place holder since the key was so big.

now the superblacks it had on 2 keys.. holy crap those were heavy.

It probably looks creamy cause the camera/lighting/color balance. But the pictures still shows that chalky look I find on Hardcore white CC's.

Got a pair of Imsto GH keys today.  This is not notable except that many posts recently have wondered about shipments from him.

At least one shipment made it to California, so there is hope for all who are waiting.
