As for those MegaTouch keyboard springs..................
They are the PITS.
I bought them at the Toronto Atari Convention in November.
Installed them EXACTLY as they said to do.
Tried to type on them.
And could not.

The things either interfered with the keycaps, keeping the rubber cup
from making contact, or made an annoying clicking sound.  I had them out
faster than you could possibly believe.

I've done ALOT of experimentation with the ST keyboard, and have come to
the conclusion that they ONLY way to make the ST keyboard "professional"
is to replace the whole thing.  This means that either:

a) you build your own.
b) some smart 3rd party company markets a replacement.
