I still have my old Model M. Unfortunately, I was banned from using it in the house (by the girlfriend), but it is now connected to a FreeBSD box (which still has PS/2 connectors) in the garage.

One does not realize how truly annoying the sound is until one sits in a room and has to listen to someone typing on it with reckless abandon. That's how she convinced me to stop using it.

May want to look at some cherry mx brown or blue keyboards... I like brown better, imho closer to m in terms of feel... that said I haven't tried one with mx-clear.
