These were salvaged from several 1986-1987late-version IIC keyboards, with keycaps.All these late-model keycaps are meant forApple IIC computers that have ALPS keyswitches,usually with orange or amber (yellow) stems onthe keyswitches. ALPS switches with othercolor stems, such as CREAM or WHITE,will also work in a late-model IIC. In all,there are 25 variations of the ALPS keyswitch:17 genuinely ALPS, and 8 "clones," all of whichwill fit perfectly in the late-IIC keyboard.These ALPS switches show many variationsof CLICKY (sound), TACTILITY (touch)or LINEARITY (quiet smoothness)If you are adventurous to try all the ALPSswitch variations, type this into your search:" ALPS VARIETY MAC / APPLE II KEYSWITCHES:LOT-OF-23 VARIED SWITCHES $29.00 "

(editorial comment)REGARDING APPLE II"KEYCAP SHARKS"I looked through the ads at others' offers forthese keycaps - some are now (6-2024) charging ashigh as $13.00 each for these keycaps or keyswitches.YES, $13.00 FOR EACH KEYCAP! That high priceis outrageously disgusting. No one at the annualApple II KansasFest conference overcharges at all;Some at K-Fest give away their surplus items for free.The predatorswho overcharge are not part ofthe Apple IIcommunity; they are "sharks" who haveheard thatthere is big money to be made from AppleII loyalists.They calculate that Apple II users areso desperate for particular items that they will payridiculously high prices. I hope that my lower priceon these keyswitches and keycaps underprices all thesharks, and puts them out of business!
