I have a crate of old Model-Ms in my basement, enough to last me the
rest of my days... I assume.  But these do look very nice.

What I miss are the keyboards with additional function keys;  like my
old DEC keyboard that had 24 "F" keys.  You could map key bindings to
things without have to use all kinds of modifiers [Shift+Ctrl+...]  But
that seems to be a thing of the past.
