In response to the DataDesk query:

I have a Mac Plus with the DataDesk MAC-101. I originally ordered it to get a
keyboard with a better typing feel than the mediocre Mac Plus keyboard - which
it delivers, with a look and feel very similar to the Apple Extended
Keyboard.

It is delivered with a so-so DA to take advantage of the function keys;
save your pennies and get QuicKeys as well. QuicKeys is easy to set up and
customize for a given application; for example, I use it with VersaTerm to
exactly emulate the Tektronix 4404 keyboard (the machine I use at work).

In short, the Datadesk and QuicKeys together significantly improve the
Mac interface (how would you like to flip through a stack of windows at a
keystroke?).
