I've recently bought a new computer, and the damn keyboard is so delicate that I can't type properly anymore... I like to thump my keys, slam my chunky fingers down hard and relish that big ole' clicky sound I used to get from my old keyboard!!
Now I've gotta type delicately, and I just ain't tuned in to this.... ~inserts screaming motie~

Hmm...thought of using your old keyboard? LOL yep I've thought about that, I've got this new computer desk too, with the slidey-outey keyboard shelf, and my old keyboard has the "wrist-rests" on it at the front and it just doesn't fit my desk properly! ~sighs~
I went to visit my son and used his puter..his keyboard was the same way..AND it was noisy! Clickety-Click! Click! Click! Click! GrRrRrR.................. The perfect keyboard!!!!

Send your keyboard to me please.
I have carpal tunnel syndrome and loathe those old keyboards that have to be pounded in order to produce a keystroke.

And my main problem is that, even with chunky fingers, I type very fast, and this keyboard just doesn't doesn't do the business for me... but hey, thanks for the tip-off about the repeat rate, I'll go and change that now!

I love mine. Clicky keys, can thump it as much as I like... ergo-style (split in the middle) - and NO Windows keys . Only thing I would change - I love a big backspace key... this one has a regular size one. I thought it would be hard to get used to the split keyboard, but it's really nice and I don't care for the old kind anymore. China, this one is made by Addison and it's +/- $50 US.

Ahhhh see Pete, mine isn't all bad 'cos I've got a big backspace key!
But I am seriously considering junking my little pulley-out keyboard shelf and sticking my old keyboard on top of my new desk...

I think your computer may have a boot problem China.
Did this delicate keyboard problem start with the cute boots dilema ?
