I'm just the opposite; I like tactile feedback. I heard a story on NPR this summer about a company (in Louisville, KY, I think; can't remember the name) that specialized in refurbishing old keyboards so that they have the "old" feel, including the clicker and push back. I thought about getting one, but I admit that I prefer the wireless keyboard I use; every time I moved the keyboard the wire "shuffled" the papers on my desk.

Back in the 'olden' days, every time I changed jobs or keyboards the first
thing I would do was to flip the keyboard over and pull the wire on the
keyboard clicker...

Lol, remember the relay clapper in the old 5251 M11 keyboard?
Perhaps someone on the Navigator team really missed that....
