Hi everybody,

I have a MB Rev E and I'm not entirely happy with the keyboard, I've been using this laptop for almost 2 years now but I still haven't got used to the keyboard. I often miss characters, numbers etc while typing. I find it difficult to use. I'm much slower than on the previous laptop (which was a Windows-based laptop).

Do you know why? is my keyboard faulty? Previous laptops were, in reverse order, Sony (latest), Dell, Samsung, Acer (oldest).

...am I the only one not happy with the MB keyboard?

maybe not the only one, certainly one of very few though

overall, apple's keyboard design has been a huge hit...
if it bothers you that much, get an external keyboard... you can get microsoft ones for like 10 bucks

The MacBook keyboard developed in '06 was so well received that Apple has gone to that style throughout the whole Mac line including the stand alone keyboards.
