Alu-Tastatur-Tasten

[wuschiba]

Moin,

habe es irgendwann mal gelesen, finde es jetzt aber mit Google nicht mehr: Wie heißen die speziellen Tasten, die auf MacBooks und Alu-Tastaturen von Apple zu finden sind. Also, die fachen, aber voneinander abgesetzten Tasten. Das Tasten-Design, sozusagen.

Danke!

Hm... interessant. Ich hab mal auf Wikipedia geguckt und da stand etwas interessantes dazu:

Recent developments

In recent years there was something of a resurgence of a chiclet, with the release of several popular low-profile, low-travel keyboards that superficially resemble it. These keyboards, most notably several Sony and Apple laptop ones, and current generation of Apple keyboard, Oklick 555S or just-announced ASUS Eee Keyboard on the desktop front, have somewhat smaller, flat, squarish keys that are separated from each other by some space on the baseplate they protrude from -- a features common for the old chiclet keyboards. They are not true chiclets, however, as they are not using the rubber membrane or directly moulded hard keytops as the keys themselves, and are built using well-established modern technology for low-profile keyboards. Most of them utilise the common rubber dome construction, sometimes with scissor mechanism below each keycap, giving it much better tactile response and solid feel.
