[Coco] Is it me, or are chiclet keyboards coming back?

[Derek]

In my rounds to the local thrift stores I found an HP chicklet type keyboard, HP Model 5137 if anyone wants to hunt one down. I have been using it for a few weeks now. I always liked them and I was happy to find one for my PC.

I thought the chiclet keyboard on the gray Cocos was hard to use, odd
looking and a big reason people went with other brands which had much better
keyboards.  I also remember people raving about the original IBm keyboard.

So did I miss some hidden attribute of a chiclet that makes them desirable
(again)?

Just curious, and feel free to treat this as a rhetorical question,
John
