That's like the one I used to have. Nice keyboard, but mine was old and set in it's ways (finicky in OS X).

I can't believe this is still available.  It's a good deal.  The spring is probably just mis-seated or something because I've had that happen before.

$75 is a bit steep when for a little over 100 you can get one in like new condition with full manuals, etc. at Northgate Keyboard Repair.
