Has anyone used the Datadesk 101 keyboard -- the normal one, not the ADB one? What is it like in terms of "feel"? Does it have a loud "clacky" sound or is it quieter? Is it possible to exchange the caps lock and left command key positions, either through software or hardware? If anyone has any information/opinions (especially opinions!), please send email to: kevin@trsvax.Tandy.COM (or ...!ihnp4!sys1!hal6000!trsvax!kevin if your mailer doesn't handle the other one). Thanks in advance! Kevin Dack

The backslash key is in a bad place, I keep hitting it on the way to backspace, but that is a matter of getting used to it. It's significantly better than my Sun keyboard, also. My typing rate is up about 4% since I switched. My error rate is down about 50%. And better, after four hours of serious writing, my fingers and wrists aren't sore. >Does it have a loud "clacky" sound or is it quieter? It's quieter than my old Mac keyboard. >Is it possible to exchange the caps lock and left command key positions, >either through software or hardware? No. >If anyone has any information/opinions (especially opinions!), Nice keyboard. Buy QuicKeys to make the thing really useful.
