Rare IBM Lexmark Computer Clicky Keyboard M 1398601 5004439 10/92 ASIS UNTESTED (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-IBM-Lexmark-Computer-Clicky-Keyboard-M-1398601-5004439-10-92-ASIS-UNTESTED-/301765029497) (eBay)

These don't pop up very often—the only Model M variant Lexmark sold under their own name. (ClickyKeyboards.com (http://www.clickykeyboards.com/index.cfm/fa/items.main/parentcat/13198/subcatid/0/id/239398): "We have not seen this keyboard in any other keyboard collection.") With the cool large back label from the first of the 2 production years. Missing L Shift and a few caps, but still quite reasonable.

Yes, it is a nice keyboard.
I have both the SSK and the full-sized versions.

I'm guessing shipping is the prohibitive cost...try your luck in the "Free Stuff!" classifieds thread. I donated a Model M 1391401 recently, maybe someone else will be feeling generous at some point :)
