My most recent NuData Workstation Express catalog lists a "Sun/PC Universal Keyboard", no. DCA1905, for $140. It purports to "combine the best features of a Sun type 3, 4, and 5 with a PC 101 keyboard." The layout looks like the type 4 keyboard on my SparcII with the extra PC cursor keys. The keyboard is supposed to work on both PC's and Suns. Though it is not entirely clear, the keyboard is apparently "Sun native" and requires a $20 adapter cable for a PC/AT or PS/2 type connection.
