What is it that you like in particular about the //e keyboard that the current mechanicals are lacking? Looks like it has a fairly stiff linear switch.

- DigitalJack 10y agoI don't know that I can express it. If I had it with me and could perform a live comparison to my mechanical here I could probably say. Next time I visit my parents (new years maybe) I'll give it a try. From memory, which may not be accurate, I would say it felt more like playing a piano. The feel had a certain weightiness to it, and there wasn't some peak resistance/click midway through the travel. The nice thing about my MBPr is that the keyboard doesn't even enter my mind when I'm using it. I just type. I have to make an effort to specifically pay attention to it. And that is really how I like it. I don't type because I want to feel the keyboard. I type because I want to write something. I think people are mistaking familiarity (or lack thereof) with the goodness or badness of a keyboard.
