    CS>> I randomly go to thrift stores. I've ran into 2 iMacs, both didn't   
    CS>> have the keyboards. I thought about getting one and seeing if I   
    CS>> could find a keyboard on eBay or someplace. I still might go get   
    CS>> it! The one has been sitting for awhile...   
      
      
   I use the keyboard from my fruity egg-shaped iMac G3 when I need a handy   
   numeric keypad for doing my bookkeeping on my mostly used Thinkpad T60   
   laptop.  I am impressed with the quality of the iMac keyboard. Very firm   
   construction. It is a bit heavier than today's stand-alone keyboards. It has   
   two USB ports on the ends at the top edge that act like a mini usb hub.  The   
   keyboard has a slight concave curvature. The keys feels "just right".   
      
   Good luck in your search.
