I find it soort of odd that people have trouble with the keyboard.
I have had my Mega 4 since last summer, and I have found it no
problem, after upgrading from my 800XL. At work I use a Panasonic
keyboard, a NCR keyboard, and a DEC. At home I have a 1040 an 800
and a 800XL. Going between so many keyboards, I just adapt that
each one is different, although the 1040 is at the bottom of the
list, and Mega 4 and 800 have better keyboards (among the Ataris).
Although I haven't measured it (does 2mm make that much of a
difference?) the ST keyboard is very similar to the DEC keyboard.
In fact, it was patterned after it. I am one of those fast
"non-typist", I don't touch type, but I am pretty fast neverthe
less.
