I stumbled upon an original IBM 101 keyboard while cleaning out my basement, which brought back memories of my first computer.(yes I’m that old) Although I couldn’t truly test it since I don’t have a DIN to USB converter, I was intrigued by its tactile feedback and wanted to experience something similar in a modern mechanical keyboard.
I’ve been searching for a keyboard that captures the essence of this old model without breaking the bank. With various options available, I tested several keyboards to determine which one best fits my needs. I’m not a hard core gamer so I’m not going to get into the nitty-gritty of mechanical switch brands, colors and such. My intention here is to point out some keyboards that I have personally tried and like.
