I picked up one of the older (1994) IBM/Lexmark keyboards with the removable
keycaps in their original packaging for about $18 at a computer fair.
(The keycaps will let you rearrange the keys easily if wanted to make a Dvorak
or other layout just to mess people up) I also could have gotten the same
keyboard out of a big box for around $6 or so as long as I was willing to find
the missing caps and make sure everything worked.
I was having the same frustration of buying a Win95 keyboard when I had
absolutely no intention of running it. I told myself I could remap them to
the equivalent functions in X, but now that I've had to use one, Bleah!
