Hey Simon,
Sadly, I don't think Apple cares much these days about what the customer
thinks. I suspect the new keyboard is here to stay. But I agree, typing on
the old keyboard was much more satisfactory and efficient.

Try blowing under the keys and see if you can remove anything that might be

well-known for susceptibility to dust and debris causing major problems for
