Yet another... what switch is this? Alps edition

Note the raised protrusion in the middle.

They feel like I've heard Cherry browns described.

Keyboard was actually made by Alps (and has an Alps trackball attached,) I forget what the part number is. It's in an RDI PowerLite laptop.

This is what's in the 386 laptop numpad I posted about a while back.

It's definitely by Alps, and definitely is an old design (again, 386SX-20 laptop). They do feel like Cherry browns or close.

Edit: ah yes, here. http://geekhack.org/showthread.php?t=6834
It was a -33, oops. Ultinet/NanTan. Still have some bits and pieces from it floating around, including the interestingly dedicated graphics card.
