Get them from 'clicky keyboards'. Once you try a model M, there's no going back. It's not better than sex, but using it for writing/typing, it's like coming home. But you'll need a USB to PS/2 buffered adaptor, which they sell, because the Model M drains more current than conventional disposable keyboards today due to its onboard Motorola Microprocessor.Darklord wrote:That's practically an Antique!

And another thing about using the Model M to control games is the keys, each key you can hear and feel when its engaged and when the (laser-etched, not printed) keys get grubby, you can pop off the key caps, and soak them in a mild solution of bleach or put them in a (front loading preferably) washing machine in a gentle warm cycle in a net delicates bag.
