I'm in the market for a new keyboard for my IBM PC.  Except for the left
shift key, I really like the original IBM keyboard.  In particular, I
like the tactile feel of the keys and the left-side location of the
function keys.

Since cost is an important consideration, a aftermarket clone would be OK.
From what I've seen in the ad photos, an AT style keyboard is what I'm
looking for.  I just don't want to buy one mail order and find I don't like
the "feel" of it.

I would appreciate recommendations from satisfied users of the keyboard
I'm looking for and where to buy it.  Thanks.
