Another way to look at this is that Apple takes risks, which sometimes don't work out. But sometimes they do, and so Apple tends to give new features or products enough time for the answer to become clear. I'm old enough to remember the outcry when the "chiclet" keyboard style replaced the older mechanical keyboards across the line, even for desktop machines. Those complaints faded in time, and now apparently people remember the chiclets fondly compared to the new keyboards! For what it's worth I just got a laptop with the new keyboard and although it's louder, I love the feel of it. But--I have not had any keyboard problems yet. If I do, I'm sure I'll be pissed about it. (Hoping that I won't though...)
