It blows my mind how all that works. There are so many things going on that I am not even aware of.
The fact that the character appears on the screen in the first place is magic to me, now you are talking about switch timing and "debounce algorithms". Thats something else.

Maybe cut it yourself from a piece of sheet rubber or neoprene?

Its sorcery, I tell ya. In another age comp sci folk would have been burned at the stake for all this magic.

Out of interest do the Unicomp springs feel/sound much different to the original IBM ones?
