Its a continuation of the world's greatest keyboard the IBM Model M now known as the Customizer 104/105 under its new production company Unicomp.

The thing is an engineering marvel though it is noisy to type on.

Its noisy because of its buckling spring technology which gives an excellent tactile response for each keystroke and helps to prevent people from making errors compared to today's modern rubberdome silent keyboards that are easy to type on but also just as easy to press a pile of extra keys causing you to mess up and take longer typing something out than you would of otherwise.

KontrollerX, he was talking about a musical keyboard.

A few weeks ago I bought a Yamaha PSR-E213 keyboard for about $125 with it's "survival kit" which includes a power adapter, headphones, and a foot pedal. (The headphones suck.) It was the lowest-end keyboard and works great. For you, it is programmed with 102 songs to learn, 100 styles of music, and 375 instruments/sound effects (e.g. guitar, saxophone, synth lead, percussion, drum kits, etc).

If you're serious about playing, you're gonna want something with weighted keys. Otherwise, you're going to have a difficult time learning the proper touch. Those Casio Privias are fairly cheap and are actually well-made digital pianos, and any of the Yamahas with weighted keys are excellent instruments no matter what your skill level is.

Of course, if you're just looking for something to mess around on, go for the cheaper Yamahas like Deep Dish suggested.
