Any of the old wired keyboards left?

[gkarris]

Gosh, I went to the Authorized Reseller store and the Apple Store out by where I work and the old wired keyboards were sold out. They had the normal keys and were only $29.

Anyone know where to get one?

BTW, I tried the new keyboards at the Apple Store on the new iMacs and I did like them (took a little getting used to). The USB 2.0 ports are nice. But $49?

You could try CompUSA. The one near me drags their feet in updating any Apple products.

Thanks for the heads up, but they closed all the ones around Chicago..

Ah yes I forgot about the mass exodus of CompUSA from that area.

I wanted to get one as well, but unlike the OP I can't get used to the new ones, I hate them. I wanted to pick up one for work. I want my F keys without the stupid uncomfortable fn key.

Not to mention the missing logo!

You can have them on a new keyboard very easily.
Go to System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse, open Keyboard tab.
Check the "Use the F1-F12..." checkbox.
Voila - all your F keys are now just F keys, and you need to press Fn to get to the "hardcoded" function instead.
I would have preferred to have the volume and eject keys work the same as on old keyboards, but I don't believe this is such a big issue...
