  I'm big on output devices.  My favorites are a Tektronix Phaser 550
for color raster output, an Apple Laserwriter 16/600PS for mono
output, and an HP 7550A HPGL pen plotter for color vector output.

  For keyboards I'm currently using an Apple Pro keyboard, but I also
like Happy Hackers as well as the later-series SGI granite PS/2
keyboards.  I also agree with your preference for the IBM clicky
keyboards, I like them a lot.
