Hi, where can I find keyboards with heavy keys that do not go off with
the slightest touch? I make too many mistakes by just brushing over
the keys by mistake. Is there a special keyword for searching for
these heavier keys? I'm used to the old typewriter keys.



Thanks to all, I note there are specs for switches in the Chreey
range of boards.

..and the one I might need is the "Cherry Green" .
Do keyboard manufacturers install the desired keys as a service?


If you have the money somebody would probably do it. However, as a first
step, Google for "keyboard using cherry green switches" and see what you
can find. One thing that turned up on the first search page was:

Well....thank you; I could never have found this. I'll get one,
preferably one with large letters on the keys.
