Well. It's not perfect I know but I'm still pretty happy with mine. At around $30 I don't see a lot of better choices but let me know if you have suggestions, I might get another.
I have to be honest, as one would expect after I made the statement "And I've never had a key stick, even as much as a single keystroke, nor read about it happening", I observed something along those lines. Make a statement like that and fate will turn you into a liar 9 times out of 10 I think.
I decided to edit a system file with VI through Xecutah/XTerm. The first time I brought up VI some keys got stuck repeating. I really don't think it was the keyboard doing it since I've used it quite a bit and not observed that before. It was some sort of combination of the keyboard xterm and vi. But it did happen a couple of times when I first started VI so had to fess up about it. After that the symptom went away as mysteriously as it had arrived and I was able to edit OK. Well, as OK as one can use VI without an escape key! THAT was a problem and had me hating on the keyboard a bit for the first time, Guess that key can be mapped but I didn't really want to mess wiht it then. I found that I could make my change and do a control-c to escape, hah, so was able to get it done.
