Praised by those who earn their living at a keyboard, the Tactile Pro feels and sounds so good, it'll bring a smile to your face and a devil-may-care attitude to your work.
In continuous production for over 10 years, it counts among its growing list of fans: coders, lawyers, judges, poets, playwrights, comedians, movie critics... writers of every sort.

There was a time when the best keyboards in the world had ALPS mechanical keyswitches � legendary designs by Apple, IBM, SGI, Northgate, and others.
While lesser (cheaper) technologies have since taken over, the Tactile Pro has endured and remains faithful to the original feel, speed, and quality offered by ALPS mechanical keyswitches.
We've kept this technology alive and love using it as much as you will.

ALPS switches provide more tactile and auditory feedback than any other switch currently made. This makes them PERFECT for typing...
When you press a key, tactile feedback lets you FEEL the exact spot where it triggers.
This makes it EASIER to type faster and more accurately � because each finger now knows when its work is done.
In particular, you'll experience FEWER transposition errors, which happen when you press the right keys, in the wrong order.

Gaming keyboards are great for gaming, but they're not tactile. Without tactile feedback, you can't feel the actuation points. You either have to press the keys all the way down (extra work) or just guess how far you need to press.
That's the exact opposite of what you want in a good typing keyboard.
