I've got several of these as well, though there are a couple that have a slightly 'soft' button rather than the strong 'click' style. They came with a lot of the PS/2 systems, Model 30 & model 60 from memory.. Their newer win95 style keyboards are still alot nicer than many others that I have used... -- | Tony Frank | Mobile: +61-412-481-029 | | | Fax: +61-3-9720-4672 | | Trainee Support Engineer, Ericsson | Email: tony@pm.cse.rmit.edu.au | To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
