I suppose if I didn't use the terminal to IRC and play games that require
automatic reading I could live with it the way it is. Really automatic
reading of text should be a thing you could toggle. Sometimes it is
useful and sometimes it's not what you want. I like Apple keyboards too
much better than modern PC keyboards. I use an old clicky keyboard on
my PC because i like that a lot better. Apple's keyboards feel like
the older clicky ones and they're very responsive. I just wish that
VoiceOver would respect the different keymap. It is a standard layout
after all it's not like I'm doing anything weird.
