[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Variable pressure keyboard

nakata@jessica.Stanford.EDU (Lance Nakata) (05/02/91)

This is a request from a faculty member with an arthritic hand
condition.  I believe she has an AT clone and would like a special
keyboard with keys you could customize at variable pressure settings.
She finds that her fingers can apply sufficient pressure to some
keys, too much to some, and too little to others.  If she could
program each key, then the tactile feel would be consistent
throughout.

Does such a keyboard exist?  If not, can anyone suggest a different
approach to solving this problem?  She does a significant amount of
writing with her computer and could really use some assistance.
Thank you.
