Comment on Apple’s MacBook Pro memory problem is worse than ever

What don’t you like about the keyboard? It’s quiet, low profile, easy to type on quickly, lights up… not sure what else you’d want.

low profile

that is a problem

easy to type on quickly

not really, doesn’t have a clear pressure point, so leads to keys not registering surprisingly often. I also get pain in my hands if I’m working on it for several hours.

I only can do something like 70-80 WPM on that, on a proper keyboard I’m doing slightly above 100.

lights up

Don’t care about that.

Additionally half the useful keys (pgup/pgdown/end/home/insert/delete/…) are hidden behind FN combinations.

  Are you trying to press the keys as lightly as possible or something? Just hit them until they bottom out, it’s like 0.1mm more travel than their actuation point.

    Pretty much the opposite, I’m usually either typing on a buckling spring keyboard, or on one with Kailh Box Navy switches - which requires quite a bit of force, and both have quite a bit of travel.
