A good leaf spring, finally!

That spacebar does sound delicious. On a related note, the Model Ms spacebar is especially jarring because its sound is so different than the other keys.

They're not leaf springs, they're still coil springs. Mind you, some leaf springs are amazing too. Watch my Fujitsu Sanyo review, the leaf springs in that blow other linear switches clean out of the water :D .

It's not a leaf of any kind, it has nothing to do with leaves xD .
