A final comment to the issue of keyboard vs mill. I find that the keyboard tactile feel is not as good as a old hard mechanical mill. Albeit you need more pressure to complete the stroke, but it is positive. Something like the feedback sound of the paper being hit. I think mainly because I learned to type on a mill decades ago, hi. But here is one thing I will comment on, when typing at high speed on a teletype machine you can get to the point of going fast enough to actually feel the actuator riding over the cam... Quite a sensation at the limit of the machine, 60 wpm as I recall.
