i know i can pick up a cheap GE keyboard from best buy. but i was hoping for something small, quiet and relativly cheap (hoping not to spend more than 30 bucks)

any suggestions?

and no, i dont want any fancy bells or whistles...ive got a keyboard from the first computer i built myself somewhen in the early 90s. its HUGE, clunky, makes so much noise my cats cant stand to be in the room with me.

i want something that isnt designed all "wobbly" like most of the ones i see at best buy.

If so, I suggest get something classic, no internet buttoned crap. I personally like classic 104-key ones, the best I ever typed on was the one bundled with a Siemens Scenic computer, nothing compares to it IMVHO. However, I think they're all pretty much alike.

Have you tried the "natural" ones? I love them, and can't stand to use any other anymore. Mmmm......

Radio Shack in my area has them, and they seem to type fairly decent. The press in feel is about the same as a regular keyboard, except the key has a softer feel on your fingers. Only bad thing is they are flat, and have no angle up, although you can prop it up I guess. Flat typing isn't all that bad actually.

Go to Wal Mart and try a few and see if you like one. You have to see what YOU are comfortable with.
