My daily driver is a Apple M0115 Apple Extended Keyboard (1987 ish, came with the Mac SE), happened upon it during an auction. But I have tried several keyboards but none are the "perfect" keyboard. I doubt such a thing exists. I have fond memories of the Wyse 60 terminal keyboard as well as the IBM Model F (first keyboard I ever used). I've had a Model M a few times, always at a job and never owned it. What say the unwashed keyboard plebs?

Mechanical, only the best for elite keyboard nazis like myself
Whatever keyboard, not mechanical, cheapest one at the store.
Thrift store keyboard, when was it last cleaned? Who cares?
Fuck You!

I have one of those two.

The only complaint I have is that if you flip the switch to turn the “Fn” key back into a regular Menu key you can no longer adjust the back light brightness or turn them off at night. They stay on the last brightness you set them to. It helps keep the dust off, but I have to put a cloth over it at night to cover the lights. Other than occasionally typing in a password in the dark I don’t see much use for back lighting.

I also don’t need an Fn key. All it gives you are some shortcuts for media and volume control. I can set super key shortcuts for those in the Gnome desktop (Linux). You can probably do it in Windows and macOS too.

If I were buying another one I would get one of their customizable .
