<div dir="ltr">I use the a Unicomp (specifically <a href="http://pckeyboard.com/page/UKBD/UNIZPHA">http://pckeyboard.com/page/UKBD/UNIZPHA</a>) at work and a Das Keyboard at home. I personally really prefer the Unicomp, it's got noticeably more "click" to it but is also quite a bit louder than my Das. It's really just personal preference, but the Unicomp keyboards are every bit as satisfying as you might hope.</div>

I like the ancient IBM keyboards that make that loud clicking noise<br>
and weigh 50 pounds. Are new ones being made? If so where can they<br>
be had?<br>

FWIW, using xbindkeys can make a key or key combination of your choosing set the mixer volume +5% or -5% . Or mute. Or anything you can do with a shell command. Using xbindkeys in combination with xmacroplay can make it so that pushing Shift-F2 will send X key events for "foobar" to the currently active window, for example.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
