Well, on loudness/"clacky" factor, it's about an 7-8 where the Model M
would be a 10.  It's also USB (versus PS2 for the ModelM).

I'd compare to a Northgate Omnikey before I'd compare it to a ModM; 
maybe "a cross between the solid clunk of an original MacSE extended keyboard 
and the click of an Omnikey", without that "springTHUNK as you hit bottom"
of a ModM.

Hrm, I'll see if I can make some audio recordings of it.. 

Bill
