Looking for info on this keyboard
« on: Sat, 05 January 2013, 00:16:27 »
I've had this old TKL board sitting on a shelf at the office for years.  The keys are of linear mechanical type, but I'm not familiar with a yellow Cherry-like switch that utilizes a rubber dome pad around it like this.  The manufacturer appears to be BTC and the model name Carry I, but I can't find any information for it online.  Anyone know what kind of switches these are?  Anyone else own one of these?

Looks like a standard rubber dome.

Rubber dome
Not long after the mechanical version was introduced, a rubber dome version followed. The case is different, being dark grey with a pencil tray instead of beige with a ridged recess along the top.
According to that statement the keyboard in the photos is a "mechanical" version.

The layout is somewhat different, with the ~ key to the left of '1', a horizontal enter key, and cursor keys no longer in an inverse-T formation.

Rosewill RK-9000RE #1 (Broke on day 26, fixed with Scotch Tape on day 42, barely holding together)
Rosewill RK-9000RE #2 (Lubed, still in the box.  I am afraid to use it because it will break like the first one)
