Keyboards

[Paul Mooring]

I use the a Unicomp (specifically http://pckeyboard.com/page/UKBD/UNIZPHA)
at work and a Das Keyboard at home.  I personally really prefer the
Unicomp, it's got noticeably more "click" to it but is also quite a bit
louder than my Das.  It's really just personal preference, but the Unicomp
keyboards are every bit as satisfying as you might hope.
