so Diki--
u r no longer taking the position that heavier kb's are
ipso facto more stable but that you just prefer the keybed
of the G70 to others and are willing to make the weight
tradeoff? Ok, I'll buy that, but why don't you give others
the same leeway to make tradeoffs in favor of lighter
weight kb's without accusing them of being wimps and whiners? your prior position was heavier is better.

and to answer your q re why i was ticked off at you that u raised in an earlier thread, it was because you set me up as a straw man cheapskate, saying i said i would only be willing to pay "a little bit' to get an E80's worth out of my E60, when i clearly said i was willing to pay a reasonable
amount for more features, none of which were features
specific to the E80, which has more than I need, but just
a few features which even many lower-priced kb's have.

your point re the x50 support coming at the ends of the kb seem valid, and maybe that's the key to stability in a
heavier kb. my 30-pounders have more bounce, yes, but
that's not an admission, as you infer, of the inferiority
of light kb..on the same stand the g70 would bounce even more. stability is about the stand, as the X50 is the
most stable kb i have used, and it is 9.5 lbs, and yes, i pounded on it with both hands and it still holds true.
