        No doubt.  I loved the feel of the keyboard on my 750C.  But they
were indeed rather noisy.

        I presume IBM made their own "TrackWrite" keyboard for the
701's--mine felt kinda "soft".  My 560 actually feels pretty good, but not
as good as that 750C did.  But at least its not so noisy.
