Is a Dell SK-8000 a mechanical keyboard? It's a Dell QuietKey and doesn't sound like a mechanical, but feels different than a typical rubber dome.

High quality rubber domes + sliders

Actually, SK-8000 has integrated keycaps/slider. RT7D5JTW is the one you want with separate sliders, and it feels much better.

(Yes I just revived a 7 month old thread, but for the sake of future rubber dome newbs that are wondering)
