the Kensington 64365 is a standard 104 with slightly different lay out, scissor switches, wired but has 6 NKRO.

Elitekeyboards.com got back to me and the FILCO tactile click keyboards with the MX-Blue switches will be back in stock around mid December. That gives me some time to save up some cash for one!

I think it is cheaper for me to buy say a Cherry G80 Keyboard with Cherry MX Black Linear versus buying 100-105 Cherry MX Black Linear switches from a supplier. so I buy a Ergonomic that uses say White Alps but some Ergonomics have larger Keys than others so if I replace them with the Cherry G80 Key Caps and Switches i'm going to have a gaping hole in the face plate? and it's apparent no 2 spacebars are the same on a Ergonomic so how do I overcome that?

How about you pick an ergonomic with cherry switches, then just put the MX Black switches from the G80 into it. This way you don't have to worry about the keycaps.

how many use Cherry Switches, I know one uses Brown. can't remember which. most use Alps or Tactile Membrane.

this is what I mean



see the escape key, i'm sure the Switch inside whatever it may be is centered but the Keycap is really large it's pretty much 2 Keycaps so if I put a standard Keycap in there is going to be a gaping hole on a positive note it looks like it uses 2 standard size spacebars but not a lot of Ergonomics do.

Is it possible to buy blank alps keys somewhere, or do I have to buy a board and cannibalize it?

Call these guys up and ask. Since they won't be printed I don't think it'll cost that much.

Hey guys, I'm looking for a keyboard around $50, right now I'm debating between a B-stock Filco, and the ABS M1. Thoughts?

Some people who bought the ABS found that its got terrible quality, so I'd say watch out for that.

As for which one you'll like better - well the Filco Zero has a more significant tactile bump and clicks when you press it, while the ABS's switches aren't as sharp and don't click.

Personally, I'd take the Filco
