I, too, disliked it when the transition to AT-style keyboards, with all
of the function keys along the top, was made.
Unfortunately, after a while, my old original keyboard, and my wife's,
gave out and we had to adjust.
My first professional programming jobs involved using the good-old IBM
3278 terminals.
However, failing to turn off the tactile click was not a good way to
make friends in a programming shop.
It also was the mark of a newbie.

That's a nice keyboard, but my fingers and brain demand one with the

Shift key, and the keys make very tactile clicks - like God and IBM
meant them to be. I have two Northgate keyboards built like that which
I have been pounding for over 20 years. Sadly they aren't made any more.
