I'm surprised by the section on including key travel time in the latency measures. Wasn't the Apple 2 keyboard about comparable in travel distance and resistance to today's typical mechanical keyboard switches?

I still can't find it in me to like the Apple Magic keyboard because I feel like my fingers are smashing into a metal plate hundreds of times a minute. That's a me problem though and others just have better form.

Now I'm curious about the latency of the stuff I've put on teensys in my own custom keyboards/controllers and will need to resist the urge to go shopping for a scope.

Also wondering how much PS/2 vs USB matters.
