Simple high quality metal alphanumeric keyboard?

Hi Everybody,

I want to buy a straightforward, high quality, quiet, wired alphanumeric keyboard constructed of metal which has a rectangular footprint. Price no object!

My searches have yielded nothing but silly shapes, disco lighting keys, indeterminate build details, incorporated USB hubs and similar distractions.

Anybody know of a solution, please?

Love to you all,

Harry

    SUN and SGI have killer though quiet wired simple keybaods.
    Look for some used ones on ebay.
    (just make sure they are PC compatible)

    Best keyboards I've worked w/ and I've been at it since the VIC20 days ;)
    Built like a tank (you could kill someone w/ one) the Sun ones are dead silent and like butter to type on.
