It's why we put weights in keyboards right?You're probably making a joke, but it HAS been done before by some manufacturers :P .

Some people have modded their keyboards by putting weights in them.
Weights would prevent the keyboard from moving around, but better feet or use of a desk mat would help even better.
We naturally associate things that a heavier and made of heavy metals instead of plastic or other lighter materials to be more valuable, more solid and more well made. Where does this behaviour originate from? That appears to be a mindset shared among vast majority of people, independently from culture and society. My attempt to explain this would be the historic meaning in human culture of precious metals like gold and silver, which are very heavy. The importance of these metals goes way back in our history. It could be the reason why we associate "heavier" with "more valuable".
What do you think? Did you ever thought about that?

I like them thick just like my girls
Come back to me when you know the difference in density between gold and silver.

Look at it this way..
Water itself is plentiful, however the ability to accrue sizable containers is NOT..
Therefore stocking water is actually an extremely difficult endeavor..
WHICH MEANS, almost no one will have it when we run out.. be it poisoned oceans, radiation, etc etc...
Gold / Diamonds / precious metals, will all be useless come that time..

What are you talking about tp? I thought this thread was "Why is "heavier" generally associated with being more valuable and well made?"
****, why didn't I think of that one? xDShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/NRq1Wn3.jpg)

Why lead is not valuable if it is heavy?

I thought we've moved onto talking about precious metals and currency reserves..
Titanium is a prime example of something being abundant... but hard to get a hold of since it's so reactive. Making it expensive.Why lead is not valuable if it is heavy?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abundance_of_elements_in_Earth's_crust
I think we associate heavy = good, is because that when we pick up or feel something it has some weight we think of sturdiness, lots of items in daily life that we associate with cheap are thin and light.Yeah I'm pretty sure that's my thought process on it at least.
Lots of cheap products = thin and light, so heaviness to us = More probability of it being sturdy and of quality.
Don't forget that HHKB is light and yet it is often associated with quality and well made :PPeople sometimes complain at how light it is too, it often sliding around on their desk or something of that nature.
Heavier the women, the sturdier she is. ;)
