List the best keyboards you have ever used. You might
like the feel, number of
function keys, layout (let's not forget Dvorak or more esoteric designs) or
pure keyboard<->computer love (you might really get off on Vaxen).
Apple Extended II ADB keyboard (I've been using the same one on my 8500/180,
G4/450 AGP, and G5 2x2, though the last two are via a ADB-to-USB converter)
Older SGI PS/2 keyboard (I got this with an SGI o2, and it has the best feel
of any PS/2 keyboard I've ever seen)
Cheap no-name AT keyboard from '91 (I used to hate this as it the space bar
would stick in the summer when the AC was turned up to high. It's nice and
solid, and my standard keyboard for everything but my Mac, for about the
last 7 years has been used via an AT-to-PS/2 converter)
LK401 (keys are a bit mushy for my taste, but I like the shape, and it has
all the keys I need, I also use LK201's and LK451's.
Basically I like a good solid keyboard that won't flex, is a bit on the
heavy side, and has good keys, none of those modern mushy ones for me.
