>Especially in cases when it doesn't need to be thinner. I just tried out a Apple Magic Keyboard, which is a razor blade for some reason, and had wrist pain within a few hours of using it. Everybody's different, but this keyboard is trash. It is designed solely to look pretty in marketing photos.
If you're talking about the keyboard on the new MacBook Pros, yes, it's trash.
If you're talking about the standalone keyboard actually called "Magic Keyboard", then I disagree, it's perfectly done, and a pleasure to type on.
And I own several mechanical keyboards (and have started as back as to be using Sun's own keyboards on Spark workstations).
That keyboard was good. It's replacement is worse, but only moderately worse, so it's got less attention than the train wreck that is the Macbook and Macbook Pro keyboards.
I would assume he is talking about the Magic Keyboard 2.0 which is the newer version of that one. It is widely considered to be an excellent keyboard and many people (rightly in my opinion) don’t understand why they just don’t put that keyboard in their laptops. I type on the MK2.0 and love it but keyboards are a personal thing and there any many thin style ones that I just can’t type on, and don’t get me started on “mechanical” keyboards, awful, loud, dreadful RSI inducing things (for me).
