I also use a Model M. they don’t make them like that any more! I use an IDE to SD card adapter rather than CF, as SD cards are super cheap and easy to image.

- bstar77 4y agoI prefer CF cards because there's no signal conversion needed while SD card adapters needs conversion electronics. I'm not sure if the SD card adapters are any less reliable, but I've stuck to buying Startech CF adapters and have not had any issues yet. Plus, I have about 30 CF cards on hand so it's nice to still have a use for them.
- nhecker 4y agoBut they /almost/ do! I use an '86 IBM M as my daily driver, but I've bought two keyboards from https://www.pckeyboard.com/page/category/UKBD https://www.pckeyboard.com/page/category/UKBD which still makes this style of keyboard. They're not nearly as broken-in as my M is of course, and the construction differs in a few insignificant (to me) ways, but the typing experience is identical. I'd recommend giving them a look if you're in the market.
