I prefer keyboards without key travel or very little key travel. The reason i make most mistakes is because I didn't press the keys hard enough. So I am thrilled with the MacBook's lack of key travel. I just wanted to purchase one with a larger screen and more powerful machine with more ram.
I learned to type many years ago on a manual typewriter, so even old-style computer keyboards with a lot of travel bothered me at first. I eventually become accustomed to them, though. I went through a similar transition when I got my first "flat" Apple keyboard, but I now prefer them. I haven't tried the MacBook, but I could probably get used to it over time.
