As for the 10 Best Keyboards, that's almost too easy. In no particular order:

M4000
Mellotron MkVI
Mellotron MkII
Chamberlin M1
Chamberlin 600
Chamberlin 300
Chamberlin Riviera
Mellotron 400
Mellotron MkV
Mellotron Mk1

Wow!  A Mellotron dominated favorites list.  Not much room for anything else. 
 How would one break this down? 
- Mellotrons as a category of instruments?
- M400's as the most abundant?
- MkII's as the most aesthetically desirable?
- M4000's as the most practically desirable?
- T-550's as the most rarest?
 
Perhaps two favorites lists: One with Mellotrons as a general category among 
other keys; the other exclusively tape replay instruments.
