IBM Model M
Sep 26th, 2007 by twistmac
Okay so I might as well have another post on here. This time I shall talk about my awesome IBM model M keyboard. I love this thing, it’s built very solid and I can type forever on it without having an problems at all (which says a lot since it was built back in 1990). I got it for $20 off Ebay which isn’t too bad I think. I like the mechanical key switches in it, they make for a much better typing experience than I ever had on any of my past keyboards. It has actual springs under each key making for a more responsive and tactile feel when typing. I think I’ll stick with this for a very long time, I don’t feel a need to jump on the new Apple keyboards like everyone else, I never was a fan of the MacBooks keyboard anyway and the new Apple one is just like that. All in all I’d say go find one somewhere, I’m sure some school is throwing a bunch of them out down the street as we speak so go get one.
Here are some links since I’m never one of the best at describing things.

Yeah cause you had so many problems typing on your apple keyboard…. and what you’ve already grown out of your keyboard with no labels? I thought you were going to be using that forever
You mean my Das? I still use that, just not on this computer, I may swtich back sometimes, idk, I like my model M for now. The Das is on my iMac.
