best keyboard ever!!!!

yes, you need a PS/2 port (or an adaptor for USB)

it doesn't have a "windows" key, but you don't need that anyway.

They're old, cheap, have a really loooooong cord, and the keys have springs! It makes a ton of noise when you type, and it feels oh so good.

Best Keyboard Ever.

1. Amen! I'm typing on one at this very moment.
I love the noise it makes. Very satisfying.

2. where did you get yours?
there's a local computer shop that has lots of old equipment. I get them for $8 a piece. Sometimes they need lots of cleaning, and sometimes the Fkeys have odd stickers for lotus or wordperfect, but everyone loves them. I really should buy up a supply.
