So as I'm new here, I've read up a bit on it, but I'm curious: in practical application, what does a dome membrane keyboard feel like?

What are you typing on at the moment? If it's a separate keyboard then it's likely to be rubber domes.

I'm typing on an MS 4000 Natural keyboard.

Dome-membrane. I find the MS 4000 rather mushy.

Dome-membranes vary a lot. You've got junk $3 featherweight boards with terribly mushy keys (my library has them) and very often a small backspace and L-shaped enter. You've got mediocre boards like most OEM keyboards (e.g. Dell Optiplex keyboards) But there are very good rubber domes, which are usually older models, like the RT7D5JTW Dell Quietkeys and Keytronics.

He said dome membrane.

So this would do:

So if I wanted to know how this feels I should just put a couple keys on my manboobs?
