Keyword tests are very useful for testers who aren't also programmers at some level. I have found that scripts run faster and more reliably. Right now we are using both, but at my previous shop, we used scripts exclusively. Depends on what you need.
Yeah, when I first started my current project, all of our existing tests were keyword tests. They were horrible - mouse clicks were tied to screen coordinates rather than objects, and trying to fix them (for any reason) would make my head explode.
Fortunately for me, I was the only one on the project at that point, so I was able to throw them out entirely and start from scratch using scripts. Much easier to edit, and MUCH easier to write smaller routines for things like "Save and close form" that can be reused throughout the test.
