Dismantling an AT keyboard entirely

I have to agree with this sentiment. I have used the IBM keyboard since
the days of the 2741 (an APL terminal) and the selectric typewriters of
the day. Never has another keyboard manufacturer produced so nice
a feel (action, for the musical crowd) to the touch of my hand. I really
like
the Microsoft natural keyboard, with but one reservation - the action of
the key switches (I like the elite much less than the full sized model).

Don't tell me to swap for new $10 keyboard either! I touchtype all
the time and I have not found one that does similar job as this
bowing spring technologies in IBM keyboards.
