I've not had my STacy's keyboard apart though.              Whenever I've used the "TT Touch" keyboard upgrade from Best Electronics,       I always fill out the space bar on regular ST's. Makes it much more stable        IMHO.              I'd say with springs, go for it - you can always take them back out if       you don't like the way it feels or it just won't work.              --       Welcome To DarkForce! www.darkforce.org "The Fuji Lives.!"       An Atari SW/HW based BBS - Telnet:darkforce-bbs.dyndns.org              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
