Plugable Technologies USB-MECH87RW Compact 87-Key Mechanical Keyboard with Red Linear Switches

It's time to upgrade your computing experience with a high quality mechanical keyboard. Mechanical keyboards offer more precision, improved typing feedback, and what many consider to be a more satisfying sound and feel when compared to traditional rubber dome/membrane style keyboards that can often be described as ''mushy'' or ''lifeless''. After our success with the Plugable blue switch ''clicky'' mechanical keyboards we decided it was time to introduce linear versions to our lineup. Just as with our blue switch models we used Gaote, a relatively well known switch manufacturer with their Outemu switch brand. Outemu switches are a high quality clone of the classic Cherry MX switches. The Gaote PG150 Series Outemu Red switch provides a smooth and lightweight linear action with limited noise pollution. Double-shot refers to a process where the keycap legend (text on the keycap) and the keycap itself are two separately molded parts. The main benefit of this design prevents the legend from wearing off and make the keyboard far more durable than inexpensive keyboards using traditional pad printing or laser etching techniques which can often start to show signs of wear in just a matter of weeks.
