    I got A205, I love the computer, but the keyboard is very stiff. It takes a little bit more force to get the keys pressed, since I am typing all day long, this is hard on my fingers.
    I just wanted to see if I could get a keyboard from another model and replace it for easier typing.
    Thanks!

    It feels pretty normal. All keys have same resistance. I am not sure if there someone crazy enough to measure laptop key resistance, but this seems tougher compared to others I have used.
