Switches in a Sega Saturn keyboard
« on: Mon, 22 June 2015, 12:05:13 »
Anyone ever seen one of these? I love the keycaps but the price on ebay is too steep to take a chance on it being rubber dome or some other non-useful mount.

I proxy anything including keyboards (キーボード / 鍵盤), from both Japan (日本) and China (中國). For more information, you may visit my dedicated webpage here: https://www.keyboards.es/proxying.html

This video shows the black version of this keyboard: rubber dome with slider key switches.

I saw that video but the body of the white one isn't curved on the bottom which makes me think that it is a different manufacturer.

That keyboard is made by Fujitsu. I have one only in Swedish layout with integrated trackpoint.

It is the exactly the same domes as in the Sun Type 5 and Sun Type 6, if you have ever tried any of those...

Ah okay. Looks like Peerless switches on the Type 5 and I already have 7 too many of those boards.  :confused:
