>With that said, I do wish the keyboard on my Framework 13 were better.

Exactly this. I've given up hope to expect an old-school TP keyboard with its ridged concave keys providing perfect tactile feedback even when not depressing a key, but there's basically no standard laptop layout out there anymore optimized for efficient touch typing, with existing consistently grouped and offset(!) off-center key groups (4-group f-keys, pgup/pgdn/home/end cluster, arrow keys). And some key travel to go with tactile scissor keys to reduce bottoming-out would be nice.

(Oh, and why I find the "tactile feedback" so important, see the wonderful "Pictures Under Glass" rant.

Not directly related to keyboards, but the premise remains the same. Hands feel things. :) )
