I don't really like the one I'm currently using. It's quite cheap feeling and the enter key is too small!

Still love my Saitek Eclipse II. Great quality.
Thanks for that Kingpotnoodle. To clarify, I'm interested in the opinions of people on this forum, not a bunch of random shopping results. Thanks for the heads-up anyway.
Thanks for the suggestion Kalniel. I'm looking at something a bit cheaper (sub-£20) if possible.Still love my Saitek Eclipse II. Great quality.
Then anything by Logitech or Microsoft, they tend to be pretty well made and I like them. Far more telling than opinions here though would probably be the ratings on the stores like Newegg, if there is something wrong with a product the moaners will be there.
If your after just a basic keyboard then the logitech Deluxe 250 is great http://www.scan.co.uk/products/logit...oard-ps2-black no frills but very nice to type on.
The 350 for some of the extra keys http://www.scan.co.uk/products/logit...967740-0120%29
A bit more expensive, look at Cherry, these are very well made keyboards http://www.scan.co.uk/products/cherr...sb-11-20-black
the saitek/cyborg K80 is also nice as a basic cheap keyboard http://www.ebuyer.com/product/152188 (does come in other colours)

i have to disagree with Kal, i have always had god results with Logitech no matter the budget!
Cherry and OEM dell keyboards are very good though, especially this one:

Yeah that one is pretty popular at work, but when this one starting shipping with the Vostro PCs people were asking for them:

The older one with the kinked space bar is actually better.
The basic HP keyboard is pretty good too http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0002JD34...A3PXAV5FT8PFGD
But I find the space bar feels a bit wibbly, you can twist it a bit, it's just not as nice as the logitech 250 spacebar.

Thanks for all your suggestions guys. I think I'll probably go for Biscuit's suggestion http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-Replac...191420&afsrc=1
There seems to be a consensus that Dell keyboards are good quality. I also like the chunky look of that one. And it's dead cheap.
One other thing - would there be a noticeable improvement if I went for a slightly more expensive (£20) keyboard compared to that one?
The Dell keyboards mentioned look similar to the one I used on a work computer. Two wore out within three years.
A few other people at work had the same problem. It was with the space bar and enter key. It was with the late 2005 to late 2007 models.
