I'm sorry, I don't fully understand the import of this phrase. Perhaps you meant "Why are you not etc.".
You are right about the fact that my only complaint is the "clack, clack, clack" of this keyboard, the "feel" is fine. At this moment I have no quarrel at all with my current keyboard, but perhaps that is because I have removed my hearing aids prior to turning in.
I haven't yet investigated this problem fully, but I have noticed that there are quite a lot of keyboards purporting to be for use with a desktop PC, that are very flat and only the size of a laptop keyboard. These, I guess, are the ones that are what I would call "membrane keyboards". I do not particularly like using a laptop, or, for that matter, a "smart" phone which insists on interpreting my "touch to scroll" as a "press to open". I started using a PC as a design tool in 1985 and I like tools I am used to. My personal preference, therefore, is for what I would call a "full-size", what used to be known as an extended keyboard, having 12mm square keys pitched at 19mm approximately.
I was hoping to get a reply along the lines of "I use a Bloggs XK which, whilst not absolutely silent, is pretty quiet". I was a tad disappointed that you, being a distinguished member and therefore very experienced, would have chosen to decry my description of a product about which I admit to not having a great deal of knowledge. Which is why I asked the question.
I looked at the Topre and was very impressed with the construction of the individual keys, and can fully understand why it commands a high price. A price which, unfortunately, is beyond the limit to which I am prepared to go.
