AT Space Saver Keyboard

It's a good width!  If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.

From a quick search around this could either have Cherry ML's or an MEI branded linear switch with MX compatible stems.

I had them many years ago, long before I understood the difference between MX and ML.

Datalux really suxk.

Unless you are buying for the keycaps, I don't think you should waste your money.

Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

All the one's I've seen have those MEI switches everyone hates. I think they use some rubber as part of the spring.
