Are Membrane Keyboards Linear or Tactile

Are membrane keyboards linear or tactile? Since membrane keyboards are all pressure pads they are, by default, probably not tactile. There will be no feedback given when the key is pressed other than the letter appearing on the screen. However, this can be customized. Membrane keyboards can be altered to give some kind of feedback when they are pressed. Be it some of the before-mentioned artificial tactile speedbump or a little clicking noise. This can be done to many types of keyboards, even mechanical. If you have a laptop keyboard, chances are it is a membrane one (to save room). But, some keys will be made to feel more tactile. Commonly the space key is much louder than the other keys so you can hear when it is pressed. This allows you to know that you are ready to move on to the next word in the sentence.
