The typing style for low profile keyboards is different to your old keyboar= d.=C2=A0
You are not meant to rest your hands/fingers on the keyboard and then jump = on
the keys as if it were a mechanical typewriter.=C2=A0 Instead your fingers = are
meant to float over it.

However, what you're describing is key switch chatter.=C2=A0 Mechanical= keyboard
switches can suffer from this problem.=C2=A0 You depress a key once and onc= e only,
but it registers multiple inputs.=C2=A0 It can be *very* annoying!=C2=A0 Th= ere are some
fixes for mechanical gaming keyboards, but if you have a new keyboard you&#= 39;d be
better off asking to RMA it.

I believe this is just Dale holding the keys fo= r longer than the key repeat delay, causing them to repeat. I doubt this is= a hardware problem.
