I have one of the new Apple external keyboards, which I believe have the same keys as the new oft-criticised laptops. (If I'm wrong, please correct me!)

And I like typing on it very much. I previously had the preceding Apple external keyboard which had more travel, and considered getting a mechanical keyboard because 1. it's cool and 2. it's supposed to be nicer to type on, but due to circumstances I got this one and I'm actually quite happy with it. Wondering whether it would've been a good idea at all to try a mechanical one.

Don’t think the external keyboards have anywhere near the same keys. At least the magic keyboard 2 doesn’t. They have a bit more travel, and while not really mechanical they’re satisfactory for daily use.
