The LK201 is one of the worst keyboards I came acros.
(The next worse is Sun type 3.)
Some friends love Sun keyboards. I was never that impressed. Also, the
Apple Extended II is often regarded as a classic. It's certainly far
better than modern Apple k/bs but although they're OK I don't love
them. I sold one recently on eBay & it only fetched a few pounds, so I
will keep the others I have.
IBM Model M is nice, but very NOISY. I can't stand
that.
Still my all-time favourite. I'm typing on one now. I love them and
the noise is totally worth it.
I prefere the first generation of PS/2 keyboards from
SGI.
(SGI OEMed them from Alps.)
Not tried one, but I have used Alps boards and found them lacking feel
for my taste.
