It has Cherry MX Blue switches. Anyone who says Black doesn't know what they're talking about.

You've found it. It's a 3-position switch. I don't have it in front of me, but the options are something like OFF, WHITE or COLOR CHANGING mode.

The brown you are referring to is probably shiny plastic? I would recommend buying the brainerd outlet and switch to match this cover as they are not shiny.

I can't remember what the labeled switches are, but they aren't the cherry my blues (clicky) switches they may be cherry Browns.

Black, but don't get it. The on/off switch on the keyboard broke, and I need to replace the case.

on mine the first switch is for 1,3,5 and 7. the second is for 2, 4, 6 and 8. you can connect them any way you like.

The switch is easy to find. It is a rectangle slide on/off - color black on black located on the front below the fan and above the base. Has been easy to find when feeling around in the dark

I would call the color almond. The color is very similar to electrical plates, switches and outlets sold as color almond.

they're actually all the same. it's just the matter of what types of switch (blue,brown, black for cherry). If you don't mind the noise, then blue is the loudest. In my opinion all are the same, so look at your budget and just buy the cheapest in the ones you list. They're all good keyboards.Or you can buy the Razer Blackwidow for $80. It's pretty good deal for a mechanical keyboard and it's pretty new, came out in September or October i forget.

Blue, and the unit offers about 7 different brightness levels. Anywhere from dim to insanely bright, I alternate between the dimmest level and completely off. When off the unit just looks "quiet" for lack of a better word, still working fine just no personality I guess.

I had to buy a roller ball switch. I bought it a California Electrical Supply in Bakersfield.I think its a normally open switch but I cant remember

It is a roll type switch located on the cord. Its not as close to the lamp as I would like but still usable.

blue switch. If u are a gamer who don't care much about the rgb light or u are an editor who don't cre about the annoying sound u should get it! I highly recommend this. The package weight? U really care about this? U sure? I used this more than a year, and the only thing I want to tell you is: even though this mechanical keyboard is maybe not looks or feels great when you first get it, but u will like it after u use it more than a week! Much better than other so called mechanical stuff. Remember this is genuine CHERRY!

The switch appears to be standard electrical device size. I mounted mine in a gem/handy box on my drill press. Hope this helps.

It's a dark bronze, looks almost black. The switch is all the way at the top. Really needs a seperate switch for the reading lamp. Nice looking though.
