The switches mean less than the TIME it takes to break them in..

The ultimate investment is "usage."  not the device itself. (http://www.cute-factor.com/images/smilies/onion/th_095_.gif)

I don't make it a point to bottom/non-bottom during regular typing..

HOWEVER,  on a speed run,  I BOTTOM..  because that's the most definitive way to ensure accuracy.

Aye I never really pay attention to it, but sometimes I write a sentence on reds without bottoming out unconsciously and it feels so good. No tactile feedback at all, it just feels like the words appear on the screen by mind control or some ****
