I have a collection of old-fashioned IBM keyboards with sprung steel mechanisms, in black. Every time I see someone throwing one away, I squirrel it away for later. I originally started collecting them in case the unlikely happened and the one I'm using actually failed in some way... but now I have four spares, so I can probably let you have one for free if you'll pay the shipping costs.
Alternatively, you could get one of those new washable rubber keyboards (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?sku=G126-1008). Though I guess you might find a rubber keyboard distractingly arousing...
Edinburgers can find those in Communic-8 on South Clerk Street. They had them the last time I popped in anyway. I'd probably hate to use it, but I'd just love to have one :)
