    The IBM chordboard has been around for a long time.  Some folks at MIT
    have had one on a LISP machine for a while.  Is anyone listening who
    knows more about their experience?

I don't like it at all.  The one MIT has is mechanically incompetent.
The keytops have sharp edges which feel distinctly unpleasant when you
use the "between keys" positions.  It is also not mounted in such a way
as to give your hand any support (not to mention getting the damned
thing to hold still.)  Because of all this obnoxity, I've never bothered
trying to learn to use it.  Is the one at MIT just half-assed (it bears
distinct signs of having been built by IBM, like the finish on the
hardware (IBM-Selectric Red...) and keytops), or are they all
half-assed?
