I do love typing on the newer keyboards, though. The "touch" of the keys is fantastic. I'm old enough that I had learned to type on a manual (yep, not electric, but the strictly mechanical kind) typewriter. It took me years to learn not to pound the daylights out of my computer keyboards. Didn't really stop until I got these new ones. I got lucky and upgraded before they went to the mini keyboards. I hate the missing number pad, but love typing on them.
