the former model would nail it some time far after the heat death of the universe, if you were putting a bet down
this model would have an infinite number of monkeys getting the complete works perfectly down from the first keystroke

an infinite number of attempts trying to do anything would mean perfecting it on the first round.
Of course, then you have to filter an infinite amount of data to find it.

Provided the monkeys are independent of each other.

there is always a tiny, but finite, chance that random quantum fluctuations would produce forces on the keys that type out the entire works of Shakespeare and as we all know, any finite chance, however small, in an infinite system becomes a 100% certainty to happen at least once.
You could even just have nothing, and there is about the same chance that the works would spontaneously form out of that nothing, fully printed, autographed, and bound.
