For a while now around here, various people have been remarking that
the Mac's keyboard seems "crowded."  Yesterday, we got around to
measuring the key spacing and were surprised to find that it seems to
be the same as all of the other keyboards on other various terminals.
No one is saying that these other keyboards feel crowded but the
comment keeps coming up about the Mac.  Does anyone know what it might
be in the Mac's keyboard design that causes these impressions?
