[TriLUG] OT Keyboards

[Wes Garrison via TriLUG]

You need a buckling-spring keyboard:

>From the folks that used to make the venerable Model M. It's not quite the
same quality as a Model M, but it's darned close.

You can also check out WASD Keyboards <http://www.wasdkeyboards.com/>.

They use Cherry MX switches, but I've found that even the Cherry MX Green
switches aren't as "tough" as the buckling spring.
