I have noticed that pressing multiple keys at once on the sidewinder requires noticeably more force than just one, because pressing a key off-centre is difficult on a non-mechanical keyboard. I was wondering what this is like on a majestouch, being a mechanical keyboard. Of course it wouldn&amp;#39;t compare to a real steno machine though, or does it? I have heard that mechanical key are easier to press on an angle. Is that true?&lt;br /&gt;Thanks</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5281181286737011264/6117719297056163487/comments/default/4644767792117123103'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5281181286737011264/6117719297056163487/comments/default/4644767792117123103'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://plover.stenoknight.com/2011/10/introducing-ploverpad.html?showComment=1319620049921#c4644767792117123103' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://plover.stenoknight.com/2011/10/introducing-ploverpad.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5281181286737011264.post-6117719297056163487' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5281181286737011264/posts/default/6117719297056163487' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-702406349'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5281181286737011264.post-4189584947181436767</id><published>2011-10-25T17:58:34.970-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-25T17:58:34.970-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Sorry to hear that.
