   Company named Northgate (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northgate_Computers) -   
   which made PC-clones - had a nice series of keyboards (back in the day) that   
   were the best replacements for 'real' IBM keyboards - solid, built like tanks,   
   and with two sets of F-keys - a row on the top AND a set on the left. See
