Off hand, I can only think of three that used that classic layout:
- Apple IIgs keyboard
- Macintosh SE keyboard
- Apple Extended keyboard (original; not II)
There may have been one or two other Apple-made ADB keyboards
that had the same type of layout, though I'll leave it up to others
here to fill in the blanks, assuming there are any.
I've always had a preference for the IIgs keyboard (825-1301-A)
simply because it has such a nice clicky feel and yet so small and
compact (roughly 15" x 4", plus a 1" x 11" extension on the front).
It's probably a third the size of my IBM-brand PS/2 keyboard which
sits next to it and utterly dwarfs it.
