Hey kids. Stop whining about Model M and Unicomp keyboards being loud.

You haven't typed on an IBM 029 card punch. That puts a Model M to shame.

You haven't typed on an original ASR 33 terminal. That puts an IBM 029 card punch to shame.

My hearing is shot. I'm not sure if it's the rock music or those old keyboards.

The ASR-33 starts out loud when you're not even touching it :-)

Can't beat a linotype for surround, though. Clanks and thumps from all around you...
