Currently I am using a Microsoft Natural keyboard, which I like a lot.  But 
since you are looking for recommendations for standard keyboards, the two best 
standard keyboards that I have used would be:

	1. I don't know the model # or name, but this keyboard was 	
	manufactured by a company called "NMB."  I purchased it for my 
	parents, to replace the horrible Packard Bell keyboard on their
	386sx.  Excellent keyboard -- $30 at Sam's Club.

	2. The Keytronic 101 keyboard.

I hate keyboards with a loose feel -- the above two both have the nice, tight 
feel that I prefer.  And neither one has any type of 'keyclick' -- another 
major plus.  The keyboards that Gateway 2000 uses aren't bad, either -- except 
the ones with the extra arrow keys.
