There's really no comparison between a rubber dome keyboard and a quality cherry MX or gateron-based keyboard. I've been using a kinesis advantage pro with for about 13 years now, and I've recently picked up an ergodox;[2] both with cherry MX brown switches. Some of the newer mechanical keyboards coming out of the threads here: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=44940.1700 are also worth checking out if you've got the keyboard bug hard. 1: http://gallery.donarmstrong.com/don_lab/017_even_more_lab_desk_10232003.jpg 2: http://www.donarmstrong.com/posts/ergodox_keyboard/ -- Don Armstrong http://www.donarmstrong.com I'd sign up in a hot second for any cellular company whose motto was: "We're less horrible than a root canal with a cold chisel." -- Cory Doctorow
