I have several of the now classic IBM Model M keyboards I procured in the '90s. Modern BIOSes don't like them even with a PS/2 to USB adapter so I gave up on them. The Lenovo KU-0225 is a good keyboard with the "standard" extra keys that are useful in some desktops. It is full size and quiet. My main keyboard is a daskeyboard I bought several years ago with the Cherry key switches It is thick so you might not like it and it is loud. It has the same number of keys as the Lenovo, 104, I think. This one was not cheap while the Lenovo was considerably less expensive. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
