IBM Clicker Keyboards!
Does anyone know of a cheap place to pick these up?
The only places I can find aren't listed on resellerratings (except one that had a rating of .34).
I found some for 10$ at this place, but I don't know if they're reliable or which model is the best? http://www.affordablesurplus.com/sea...btnSearch.y=10

If you have any computer build shops around your town go there people love to get rid of their old style keyboards even IBM boards that are known for their ruggedness. Check around You might find them on sale for as little as $2.00.

I go to school in the middle of the woods on top of a mountain. No computer shops for 50 miles around here.

way back in my programming days when i did a lot of typing, i also favored the ibm-click keyboards.
but the ibms were always too expensive and i wound up buying the focus keyboards which are the closest to the ibms in their tactile feedback. their keys were actually a touch 'lighter' which i found to be more preferable.
i dunno if focus is still making keyboards, but they might be worth a look...

Wierd, it was working when I posted,
This place also has them, but they seem really sketchy (I ain't buying without a credit card in case I need to stop payment). http://www.freestuffandmoney.com/forsale/#keyboards
