but I want to "real thing" the ibm model m is the first one and the unicomp is the one that came after.
but still you are right, I'm still new and I don't want to get stuck with a keyboard that will brake or something after a year.

still thinking..

Hmm, I dunno. I guess I had roughly the same choice when I wanted my first buckling spring, but it was biased by the fact that I could get the IBM here vs paying hefty shipping and taxes to get a Unicomp sent over from the US. Have a read up about bolt-modding the IBM before you decide, because that fixes the most likely fault you'll find with a Model M, which is broken plastic heat-stakes (aka rivets).

I would get the cheap Kentucky keyboard from Unicomp, I prefer Unicomp keyboards because they have that windows key and also it is USB :D.
