Keyboard recommendations?

[Poison-]

I need a new keyboard to play FFR on, since I kinda broke the one I used to play on.
If you recommend one I would greatly appreciate if you could show me a link to where to buy it.

As strange as this may sound, the oldest, cheapest keyboard you can find is best.
My FFR playing keyboard is a jWin brand keyboard that must be at least 6 years old. I picked it up at a thrift store for $3.00.
Bonus points if you can find one with a wrist rest.

I would not recommend my wireless keyboard I am currently using. It's really good for a wireless keyboard, but tends to be oversensitive and dumps a few boos without you realizing it. I'm sure you can definitely find a keyboard better than the one I'm using :P

Logitechs are always a good keyboard to use. (In fact I refuse to use anything other than a logitech.) I've had my current one for like 2 years and it has 10 broken keys on it and I can still use it.

(By broken I mean it either sticks down or falls out when I flip it upside down. A lot of my keys are moved around.)

Edit: I paid like 1 dollar for mine at a garage sale. Best sale ever.

Re: Keyboard recommendations?

For FFR/SM/etc I prefer flatter keys. My favorite is the (now standard) Macbook flat key keyboard, but after a few years of use, the keys definitely wear. I'd love to try a scissor-switch keyboard because of the very short travel distance (2mm usually) - though I can't speak to the durability..

The Creative Fatal1ty keyboard mentioned above is a scissor-switch keyboard, though if you press relatively hard on your keys when you play, I don't know how well that or other similar keyboards can take it. If you can get a scissor-switch keyboard for cheap, I'd say go for it. Otherwise, maybe look for flat keys.
