| WOW! With my own experience with cameras, that kind of capability just seems like magic. Magic and about $20,000.

| Bought my very first mechanical keyboard a couple of days ago...
Wow!!! It's like typing on a honey soaked pillows while wearing the fluffiest mittens in the world compared to any other keyboard I've ever used.
There is no turning back now...

| Mechanical keyboard? It sounds like something of this kind:
This is actually a telewriter model that I operated during my military service. They were not comfortable for typing.

| If does it sounds like that "clickety click" of old IBM terminal keyboards, I agree, there's no way you can revert to newer ones:

Just cheap no-frills rubber dome keyboards.
Quote Mosfet ( )
For a short time back in the early 90's I had the IBM Model M keyboard. It was very robust and could probably be run over by a car and still work but the keys were so loud it drove me nuts. 
The one I bought (Roccat Suora), and most likely the majority of the modern mechanical keyboards are fortunately not as loud as the IBM Model M(onster) and its counterparts.
I can only imagine what an entire office using those would've sounded like:

...and scary!
Imagine if they were similar to the ones in (potential movie spoilers) Edge of tomorrow or X-men: Days of future past.
