It might be interesting to poll the list to see
who's still using an
IBM Model M keyboard on their x86 box. I am.
Not me. My x86 boxen get whatever peecee keyboard is handiest when I want
a keyboard on them. I don't have a Model M as far as I know; my
impression
from seeing others' is that they are not
Mouse-friendly. (I know of no
Mouse-
friendly keyboards suitable for direct use on x86
boxen.)
I don't like the Model "M" keyboard. It's a bit like wanting a tracker
organ
rather than my Yamaha EL90.
The keys require significant pressure to operate and if you are not used to
it its actually hard work.
I am not really used to this Lenovo Thinkpad T410 keyboard, but the Thinkpad
laptop keyboards haven't really altered
For a long time, even though IBM sold the business to Lenovo.
