After trying one of their ultra thin keyboards I can't say I actually mind it. The wide keys feel great to type on, although the shallowness definitely takes some getting used to. I do the majority of my typing on a Das Keyboard Mehcanical Keyboard, so I was quite surprised with how much I enjoyed Apple's thin keys.

I now prefer the low travel keyboard and find it weird to type on an older Mac keyboard...

I still pine for the sculpted aluminium* keys of my old 2007 MacBook Pro. These replacement squares of black plastic have never endeared themselves. For desktop use the DasKeyboard (with the blue 'clicky' keys) is probably still my top recommendation for feedback lovers, albeit in second place behind a late-'90s IBM model that is long out of production.

I have one of those keyboards and love it, but it's too noisy when sharing a room. It can also be used as a highly effective weapon if need be.

I currently use the CODE keyboard. It's ok.

That's reassuring I guess. I admit I haven't put in a lot of time on a butterfly keyboard.
