Hey now, the non-chiclet version (with actual keys) isn't so bad.

It took me a while to discover WHY the original PCjr keyboard used rubber keys: 
  It was so the complete newbie could use thin cardboard "overlays" that fit 
completely over the keyboard and illustrated what each key did in a particular 
application.  King's Quest for PCjr did this, IIRC, as did a few other programs.
