Was actually fun looking through that - I’m pretty sure I had a keyboard like this one:

IBM introduces the PC/XT Enhanced Keyboard (pictured) and PC/AT Enhanced Keyboard, initially for the Personal Computer XT ‘S’ models and Personal Computer AT Expanded respectively as an option. They are pearl-white adaptations of the IBM 7531/7532 Industrial Computer Keyboard, and are also the first Model Ms becomes available for home and standard business PCs.

It was the best PC keyboard I ever had! Loved the clicky sound of it.
