Acer 6311-G $8 shipped
« on: Fri, 22 August 2014, 23:09:09 »
I have no clue if this is an Acer mechanical switch or a mechanical switch over membrane (which I understand is still pretty nice), but you can't go wrong whatever it is for $8 shipped.

I don't know about that one, but I love "Acer switches" which (look kind of like fake Alps from a distance but) are actually mechanisms over rubber.

They feel very nice and I like them a lot.
“No political truth is of greater intrinsic value, or is stamped with the authority of more enlightened patrons of liberty: The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands .… may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” —James Madison, Federalist 47
“All the powers of government, legislative, executive, and judiciary, result to the legislative body. The concentrating of these in the same hands, is precisely the definition of despotic government. An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one .... in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” — Thomas Jefferson, commentary on Federalist 48

Consider me a big fan as well. I love my 6311-K. I would love to find another one as my backspace doesn't work so well anymore. I tried to clean the membrane sheets but it didn't help much. As a side note, how similar do Acer switches feel compared to ALPS?
