FYI: Unicomp still makes Model M keyboards (with USB! and Windows keys! if you want them); and Elecom trackballs are wonderful

I'm hard on that stuff; i killed multiple original 90's manufactured Model M's and wore out a stack of MS trackballs over those 2 decades. One of the fancy logitech "G" blinky lights keyboards lasted less than 3mo under my hands. Kensington cheap trackballs quit moving right in days and stop working in months.

...how? I'm fairly sure I could bludgeon a man to death with my model M and run it over with a truck and it would still work.

severe hand psoriasis, and heavy use. Can't really abide gloves or keyboard condoms either.
