I thought I
could use the key switches (from the IIe) on
Mac Plus keyboards, but they're a little too different.
Actually, you can... Many years ago, the first original Macintosh that I
owned had several dead keys. I replaced the faulty keyswitches with ones
from a junked IIe keyboard. The only difference was the pin spacing - I
simply drilled holes in the circuit board to allow the pins from the IIe
keyswitch to pass through, then soldered jumper wires back to the proper
traces.
