The loose keyboards on our Sun and HP machines at the University are horrible. The ones on the HP9000's(I guess thats want they are called) makes you remember good old spectrum etc rubber keyboards, because of their strange wandering. The ones on the Sun workstations may be bad, because they are worn. A few of the suns have adorable keyboards though, and those feel better than the my Amigas. And then we have our IBM PC's. I don't like their keyboards, even though I've had to use them a lot. The wandering is too deep. It feels like typing on LEGO bricks... So: What is it you want done about the amiga keyboards? Are the detachable keyboards for the Amiga of a poor quality? It's a long time since I last laid my hand on one. -- From the notorious Jakob Gaardsted, Computer Science Department Bed og arbejd !
