So I was looking for a Model M but they're extremely expensive. I stumbled upon this site. They say they've been producing the Model M for 15 years, and that they're keyboards are pretty much Model M's. How legit are they? http://pckeyboard.com/page/category/UKBD

Well, the company linked  to the website (Unicomp Inc) owns the rights to the design of buckling spring keyboards. And the Model M was first made by IBM, then Lexmark and finally Unicomp.

 

So it's as legit as you can get. Of course, the biggest difference is that it uses USB. And that you can buy versions that contain Windows keys.

I own and use, sorted from newest to oldest: SteelSeries 6Gv2. Microsoft SideWinder X4. Mionix Naos 7000. Zowie EC1 Evo. Microsoft SideWinder X8. Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer 3.0. Dell U2414H. Samsung P2270H. AKG K273 Pro. Sennheiser HD555. Razer Goliathus Speed Medium. Func 1030 L. Qpad CT Medium.

I used to own: Razer DeathAdder 3G. Razer Krait. IntelliMouse Optical 1.1. SteelSeries QcK.
