Funny, I was thinking about keyboards just
this weekend. Back in the late '80s I was using
an Apollo workstation that had the sweetest
keyboard I've ever used. When you pressed
a key, it seemed to resist the pressure just
a little bit more the farther down it went, until
suddenly it would ease up and the key would
bottom out and the stroke would register.
It wasn't snappy or clicky, more like the feeling
of rolling something up a hill and suddenly
rounding the crest.
Anybody know what mechanism that was, and
if there are any keyboards today built on the
same principles?
Because I'm pretty tired of all this general
mushiness.
