Pardon me? What's good about the "response" of a Mac keyboard? The two 
I've owned (both clear & white & USB) have certainly been nothing 
special.

I have a G3 iMac keyboard here which I haven't really tried yet, but 
I've noticed recently that I really miss older PC keyboards. I used my 
father's the other week & the difference was immediately noticeable - 
it's an IBM "model m" with the buckling-spring mechanism - and I have 
an old Cherry here which I used to claim was better. Of course both 
have PS2 connectors, so won't fit a Mac.

If you want a decent keyboard for a PC in UK layout then contact me 
off-list, as my father has a number of IBMs available.
