I've had a Northgate keyboard for a year now.  I like the feel the best
of anything, even when compared against the genuine AT keyboard.  The
layout is good, too.

However, I don't think the reliability of this keyboard is all that great.
The return key has begun to 'stick'; I haven't been able to cure this,
despite several attempts.  I guess it could have been worse -- it could
have been the 'd' key!  The IBM, on the other hand, takes a pounding
without flinching.
