I've been using my current keyboard for over 15 years now, and it's time to throw it in the trash and get a new one. It uses batteries and is wireless, and I'm tired of keeping batteries around, and rather go back to a corded keyboard. I like the palm rest on my keyboard, and it's a straight design, Microsoft Wireless Desktop Elite.

So I'm looking for a new one. Some keyboards are $189 USD now. I like mechanical keys, and RGB lighting would be cool I think. Just wondering if there is a great keyboard out there that programmers love.

Not like the old days where I went to Comp USA and tried them out.

[update 1]
I ordered the Logitech MX keys for business.
I do need to get a couple of keyboards so I'll a couple of them out.

[Update 2]
I bought the ...

Das Keyboard 6 Professional Backlit Wired Mechanical Keyboard - Tactile Cherry MX Blue Switches, Shine-Through Keycaps, 2-Port USB C Hub, Media Controls, Durable Aluminum Enclosure, Volume Knob, NKRO - $200 on Amazon

Very Expensive, but I've been sitting on a pile of Amazon gift cards all year to pay for it, and cashed them in for this. It seems to have everything I want, and is all aluminum construction as well.

[update]
So now I bought 2 keyboards. I'll keep the one I like most. Can't wait to throw away my current keyboard. Tired of missing characters when I type.
If it ain't broke don't fix it
