Are these the ones that have the plastic sliders over the rubber domes?

These, along with the IBM KB8923, are probably the best rubber dome boards I have used.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

what's so great about these boards? I found one of these (but didn't buy it) while I was searching for an AT102W but I don't know why these are so special :)

They are high quality rubber domes.  They have plastic sliders over the domes that make them rather pleasant to type on (well, pleasant for a rubber dome, that is). I have typed on a few of these before, and they are good keyboards.

I've had a couple of these.  Between the Quietkey, the Dell KB1421, NMB RT101 (high quality boards), Compaq SDM4540UL (all high quality rubberdomes) I much prefer the Logitech Illuminated.

Definitely the most comfortable rubberdome I've ever typed on.

Better than Enermax Aurora or A4Tech Isolation?
