I personally like keytronic keyboards.  Nice feel to them, and not very
noisy and they don't take that much force to push a key down which helps
for typing quickly, but you certainly do have to actually push them down
a fair distance.

There are lots of keyboards I don't like which are too mushy.  Mostly I
hate the lousy layouts many keyboards have.  I will stick with my KT800.
Never breaks, but it does use colapsible rubber towers as the keys (so
not as bad as the membrame on many laptop keyboards).
