- swah 13y agoYep, that's what I'm talking about. A Filco with the electronics of those apple keyboards.
- Void_ 13y agoI'm using both mechanical and MacBook built-in, and I'm not sure if I like mechanical better. It's kinda cool to type on it, but the keys are just so huge, it feels like I'm using a typewriter. Using the Apple keyboard is the opposite, it's like I'm just slightly brushing the surface.
- w1ntermute 13y agoIf you're pressing the keys on a mechanical keyboard all the way down, then you're not using it correctly. One big advantage of (most) mechanical keyboards is that there's a clear tactile and/or audible indication of actuation, at which point you can release the key.
- Void_ 13y agoHa, that's actually a great tip. I think I was just too used to regular keyboard, where you have to press until the key touches the bottom -- but with mechanical keyboard it's enough to press until I can feel the feedback. I takes some getting used to, I have to consciously try to press the keys lightly, but it kinda feels nice! I'm definitely enjoying my mechanical keyboard much more this way. Also, 10 keys typing is a must with a mechanical keyboard.
