In concur with Conor on that one. Quiet keyboards are inexpensive keyboards
are not an oxymoron. In fact, the Dell keyboard I use at the moment is
disturbingly loud, which can become a problem when you work in a shared
office.
Have a feel for the different keyboards next time you go to the shop. Some
people simply prefer it when keystroke 'feedback' is noisy and rather
strong (e.g. ex-typewriter users). The quietest keyboard I have come across
is the portable Palm keyboard. It is almost as quiet as a whisper.
