    DAS Keyboard...

    Grab hold of a used good condition IBM Model M 1391401 "clicky" keyboard or its current equivalent and I think you would be really pleased with the feel and responsiveness of the keys

    Clicky keyboards

    I've heard good things about Cherry keyboards that use mechanical switches and they are rated at 25 to 50 million key presses depending on the models. From reviews the Steelkeys KB uses Cherry key switches.

    Computer won't Boot at all....Gigabyte new mobo

    I had that happen with several Gigabyte P965-DS3 motherboards. Power up and then shut down. The CPU fan may or may not turn a few times. Provided the CPU and power connectors are ok as well as fan connectors, the solution was to get into the BIOS and change the fan settings to PWM or Intel-QST...

    Clicky keyboards

    Clicky keyboards

    I got an IBM Model M 1394101 keyboard today from a used PC store after reading a lot about their great quality and I am impressed with it. Only 101 keys, no Win or multi media stuff, it justs makes this great clicky sound with fantastic feedback. For a KB made in 1989 it is still working like new
