I have a 2015 Macbook Pro with butterfly keys. I was wondering what windows keyboard has this feature if any of them do? If not what keyboard would be closest to this for my PC? I am a fast typer and would like a keyboard with limited low cut keys for limited pressing down needed. I only play games like Diablo and League of Legends so no intensive gaming. If you could recommend a keyboard or one closest to what I'm looking for I would greatly appreciate that.

Thank you in advance.

butterfly keyswitches appear to be something apple created. does not seem like it would be any more or less practical than existing designs... and it does not seem like it is something found outside of apple.

the closest thing to that would be scissor switches. this is what was the inspiration for that butterfly keyswitch anyways. they do make keyboards with such switches although they are not terribly common. an example http://www.amazon.com/Cougar-KBC200-WXNMB-Scissor-Switch-Keyboard/dp/B00UD776ZC/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1462237290&sr=8-14&keywords=scissor+switch+keyboard

if you have a look around amazon, newegg and other stores for scissor switch keyboards i'm sure you will find some other choices.

honestly a low profile membrane...

honestly a low profile membrane soft-touch type keyboard would also work. i say soft touch since some of the cheaper boards are stiff and not so nice to type on. scissor switches will feel a bit more clicky and smooth though however just like butterfly switches are a bit fragile so will not take pounding or abuse.
