Does anyone know what type of switches this keyboard uses?

http://www.enermaxusa.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=28_48&products_id=156

Says 10 million keystrokes, but it's got laptop style keys.

Yep, nice looking, but they've turned what is supposed to be "micro" into something bigger than it needs to be with all that extra aluminum around they keys.  I think it sells for around $50 to $60 at NewEgg.  The scissor-keys have kept me from buying it.

I used one of the full-sized Auroras for a while and actually liked it; although it had short-throw keys, I found them to be much better than what Logitech offers on something like the DiNovo (which my wife loves).  When I saw the 10 million keystroke rating on these, I thought they had to use some type of high-quality switch--I guess it's just a better than average scissor.

Can you describe the difference between the enermax and dinovo? Better tactile bump? Longer key travel ?

Neither one has any tactile bump to speak of other than the key bottoming out--at least compared to a Cherry or Alps switch.  The Aurora has more substantial, taller keys, longer key travel, more resistance (in a good way), and the texture on the key caps is nice.
