 I also am dissapointed at the keyboard of the ST. It just feels too
unresponsive. I've tried putting MegaTouch springs in the keyboard, and while
it's a bit stiffer, it becomes less responsive. Is there any way to get around
the "rubber cup" smooshiness characteristic of the st?
 I would really enjoy my st more if the keyboard followed traditional styles
like the Atari 800 (REAL contacts, none of the rubber cup business). I would
be willing to pay more for an ST with a decent keyboard, but I'm stuck
with the one I have. 
 Chris Freemesser has suggested placing a spacer (cut out of sheet rubber)
between the plastic cyliner of the keys and the rubber cups to decrease
the throw distance. I havn't tried this, but does anyone have any mods or
heard of mods to improve the tactile feel of the ST?
 Where I'm living now, there are many keyboards from old terminals available,
but I suppose it won't be possible to replace the ST keyboard with it.

                                                        Thanks,

An artsie and an Engineer once sat, 'twix them a gallon can;
Said the artsie, "Match me drink for drink, let's see who's the better man."
They drank three quaffs, the artsie collapsed with a face turning green,
But the Engineer drank on and with a sneer said, "It's only gasoline!"
