I think the PowerBook G4 & Pre Unibody MBP's have the best keyboard.

There something about it that feels so nice compard to scissor switch keys. I don't know why.

+1 on the PB Keyboard. Best ever

I sent my old PBG4 back to Apple 4 times for broken/non-responsive keys. I loved the feel of typing on that keyboard, but they had serious reliability issues.

Strange, mine has been in use since 2003-2004 and it's had no broken keys / non-responsive.

I adore the feel of those keyboards. A 12” PowerBook G4 got me all through college. I’ve done so much writing on that machine. I still have it around for some old PowerPC games, and its keyboard is still the standard that I compare others to.

They're nice, I can't say whether I have a preference between the PB and Unibody era keyboards. They're both good, just depends on what I'm using at the time. I know the PB/early MBP keys liked to wear off so you'd see a smear instead of the keycap label. I definitely miss the integrated numeric keypad though.

I agree Apple forgot how to make keyboards a long time ago

The keyboard on 2012 macbooks was really good.
