   A good substitute in feel and durability is Keytronics. I scored a PS2 model   
   on eBay and plugged it into my PS2 to USB adapter. Looks sorta funky with the   
   purple and green PS2 female ends hanging out there for all to see. But it   
   works a treat.   
      
   AFAIK the Model M keyboard is still produced in Lexington, KY - more-   
   or-less just down the street from the (former?) IBM R&D facility.
