IBM model M with ps/2 connectivity

Apple MacIntosh ADB #1, where the keyboard
is hardly bigger than the keycaps.

honorable mention
DEC lk201. It needs the custom edit/edt/tpu editor and custom DEC
terminal stand, etc. But great in that environment.

What he said. Exactly.
Favorite keyboard I've never had the privilege to use:
I have a picture on my wall. PS-2 connector, goes to a small keyboard
unit. Unit says "Microsoft" on upper left corner and "intel inside"
on upper right. The only three keys on it bear the legends:
<Ctrl> <Alt> <Delete>
:-)
Worst keyboard is anything with the little eraserhead pointing device
in the middle. Distracts from typing, useless for pointing.
