Sean Surplus direct has the "good" IBM keyboards for $29.95. A Steal! Looked at Surplus Direct keyboard page and did not see the IBM 102. Do you have a URL? Clarence

Sean, would you have a URL for the keyboards handy? I just checked their web site at surplusdirect.com and didn't see any. Perhaps they sold out. FWIW, I myself find the cheapo Comp USA keyboard that they were selling for free after rebates (and for $6 and change with corporate discount) to be quite respectable, if you like lighter touch boards. (I find that when I'm working on my dissertation, or doing something similarly writing intensive, my fingers get a bit sore after a few hours unless the keyboard is soft.) Thanks, Dave
