> Does anyone else despise mechanical keyboards? Some likely do, some don't. In my case, I don't. I'm typing this right now on a Northgate OmniKey Ultra [1] that was bought circa. 1991 (sometime late 1991). I've got a second identical to it at work as well, but the second one was purchased circa. 1995. Myself, if there is anything I despise it is the low throw, chick-let style keyboards, so I'd be almost opposite you there. The reality is, to each his own. Different people will have different opinions on mechanical vs. non-mechanical keyboards.
