I picked up one of the older (1994) IBM/Lexmark keyboards with the removable keycaps in their original packaging for about $18 at a computer fair. (The keycaps will let you rearrange the keys easily if wanted to make a Dvorak or other layout just to mess people up) I also could have gotten the same keyboard out of a big box for around $6 or so as long as I was willing to find the missing caps and make sure everything worked. I was having the same frustration of buying a Win95 keyboard when I had absolutely no intention of running it. I told myself I could remap them to the equivalent functions in X, but now that I've had to use one, Bleah! Chris
