anybody know where i can easily/cheaply/reliably get one of those older mac keyboards which had the usb port on the side... i found those to be more comfortable and have a more "mac" feel lol im going to be using it with my imac and i have a feeling the color wont match but the mouse that came with this mac would work right?

or are they too hard to find in a good enough condition to last? should i just stay with the one i have?

(i used to use them in highschool and i just bought my first mac but it comes with these shiny new white ones which get every spec of hair and dust inside since the spaces are so open around the keys...)

any opinions of which of these keyboards last longer/performs better/quieter/etc.
(from personal use please)

I picked up a purple keyboard from the G3 era at the local Weird Stuff store, as well as a purple puck mouse. The keyboard was even plastic wrapped. Like-new condition.

yeah is it just me here or do the newer post-g5 keyboards [with usb ports on back] have waaaaay stiffer keys than they used to? I might think of getting hold of one of the older keyboards ..... that hadn't crossed my mind at all
