How good are these Filco Keyboards?

It's been a few days now since we stocked up on Filco Majestouch keyboards with a full UK 105 key layout.
I knew that Filco had developed something of a worldwide fanclub and were eagerly sought after by those in the know. There are many programmers, gamers, writers and serious typists who are not happy with anything else.

For a long time I have appreciated the feel of typing on a keyboard with a decent switch mechanism. It's like getting into a Mercedes after driving a Ford for the last ten years. But i'm starting to pick up on other benefits too.
Even the cost, the primary concern for most, can be spun into a positive because the lifespan is likely to be Five times that of a less well made keyboard. And they can be repaired down to component level which isn't possible or viable with most membrane switch keyboards.
This also helps on the environmental front as less will go to landfill.

Another benefit is in ergonomics. In the sense that we, erroneously, use the word. My last blog was about this.
I believe that a high percentage of computer users are typing away on keyboards that really aren't functioning very well at all. Membranes start to deteriorate quite soon after manufacture, this continues gradually and becomes noticable after a couple of years, but the keyboard will keep working if you bash it and you might easily get five years use from it. In this sense membrane is reliable and some membranes are better than others. Many of the 'ergonomic' keyboards on the market also suffer this.
Any form of RSI, ULD or unspecified ailment relating to pain is going to be aggravated by having to bash the keyboard to ensure switch activation. And it could be assumed quite logically, that these conditions are much more likely to occur when typing on a less responsive keyboard.

I'm not saying Filco are the only answer to this but they are amongst the very best and truly, if we value our fingers, hands and wrists, why accept anything less?
