[various complaints about Apple keyboards, with which I agree]

If commissioning Microswitch for a good Mac keyboard is too much of a pain,
you might look at a keyboard put out by Ehman Engineering.  It is a standard
keyboard as far as layout goes, it has a space bar longer than my finger,
and it has a feel very similar to an IBM PS/2 keyboard, which I personally
like, though feel is completely a matter of taste.

The Ehman keyboard was about $170 when I got it last summer, but it also
came with CE Software's QuicKeys (warning: QuicKeys can be addictive!) which
is $50 or so mail order.  All in all, I'm extremely pleased with the
keyboard and extremely pleased I didn't get an Apple extended keyboard.  If
I was just confusing, the Ehman is an extended keyboard with more keys than
Apple's.

The only drawback that I've found is that Apple keyboards and mice know to
resent the ADB when they are unplugged and plugged back in.  The Ehman
doesn't know how to do this, so if I unplug it, I have to plug the mouse
into the empty ADB port in back to get ADB to reset and recognize everything
again.
