  I have quite a number of them too.

  Well, $10 was teh *most*, not the average.  The $10 IBM keyboard (which
I'm using now) black, with the mouse between the 'G' and 'H' keys (a very
small joystick that looks like an eraser [1]) with the mouse buttons below
the space bar.  Most of the rest I paid around $1 to $2 for at past Ham
Fests [2].

[1]	Well, on mine it's an actual eraser, as the original red
	... um ... nipple? fell apart.

	Miami Ham Fest and boy, was it a disapointment ...
