Even if it's not expensive, Is there a high quality item every serious enthusiast owns?

Or maybe it's a highly prized holy grail item you'd give your right arm for.

Is there something you've had an eye on for a while and you're just waiting for an excuse to treat yourself?

Ohh do you have a preference? Are you one of these mechanical keyboard enthusiasts or do you prefer a slimline Bluetooth softkey type setup?

Software Engineer here: Filco Majestouch 2 w/ Silent Reds is my daily driver.

Not a coder, but a mid-range 1800 format with loud ass Box Navy switches is my (WFH) daily driver.

My browsing/gaming desktop has even louder budeget outemu greens on a budget board.

I have a couple of megacheap Filco clone gamerboards lying around my home office, but even they are a huge step up from OEM membrane garbage.

If you haven't, try the Box White Owls. Super sharp tactility, they're my current daily driver.

Heheh. the others in my office made fun of me when I convinced the IT people that I needed a GMMK (full) frame with kahlil jade switches. I got my sweet sweet revenge by typing at something like 100 words per minute... it's not an open office but it doesn't matter...

although, they've since asked for 'accessibility' upgrades to theirs as well...
