I didn't say "the classic IBM model 5250 PC-XT keyboard" or anything
of the kind. I said PC. "PC" is a generic term, which to hundreds of
millions around the world just means a Personal Computer. In fact the
PC to which the model M I am typing on right now is attached to is, as
it happens, an Apple 20" 2GH PowerPC G5 iMac.

/The/ classic PC keyboard, IMHO.
The Model M came out *waay* after the PC. The 84-key is the one for the PC.
I don't think the Model M is even compatible with the PC.
