It is to anyone who has ever spent more than 12 hous straight on a terminal... I do have to admit that the one thing I have always hated about SUNs were the bad keyboards, the spunginess of the keys and the ugliness of the construction, the way is sort of just lays there, no feet, it's not thin, it's just ugly. I think the best keyboard I ever worked with is one on the DEC personal machines like the rainbow. The one I use now is close, its WYSE-100 and it's feel is really nice, plus its thin and portable. -Jack "Go ahead, bite the big apple, don't mind the maggots!" -The Rolling Stones
