I agree the Apple II and TRS-80 keyboards were crap, but I have very fond memories of hacking on the VT-100. I guess the keyboard feelwasn't all that great compared to a model-m or something, but there was just something very nice about the whole package (the keyboard _shape_,and key layout on the VT-100, for instance, were great)...
What I remember most about the VT-100 is that it had the loudest system bell I'd ever heard. There was a 3" speaker in the bottom of the keyboard.
Overall I preferred the VT-330. It was much more compact, and the amberchrome CRT was easier on the eyes than the VT-100's black-and- white tube.
