I wonder if the mushiness of the LK201 was a response
to complaints that
the VT100 keyboard was a little too heavy at times. As a VT100 keyboard
aged the keys seem to develop little "catches" that made some keys more
difficult to depress.
I'm guessing it's more the type keyswitches they bought, or did they
outsource the entire keyboard?
A VT2x0/VT3x0/VT4x0/VT5xx can emulate a VT100, so use
an emulated VT100
with an emulated PDP-10. :-)
I'm already doing that with a VT420 :^)
