Is it worth buying an expensive keyboard for work?

(1/5) > >>

Dzhizus:
I hardly ever play games, but I just love the way these keyboards look. So what should I do with it?

Morbii:
Buy a case for it and you can enjoy it at both home and work.

ArchDill:
I only keep two "nice" boards at a time. I keep one at work and one at home. They are both hhkb layout but work best for different things. I try to stay realistic with this hobby and not have more than I can use.

For home: Mx hhkb (Revo RJ with a brass plate) with customized tealios. I love the linear for gaming.

For work: Bluetooth hhkb with real force purple silent sliders and 55g domes. The tactility of the 55g domes feels so good for long typing sessions.

zslane:
When you spend lots of hours per day typing on a keyboard for work, I think it is definitely worth it to have the best keyboard you can put under your fingers.

Karolus:
Yes, but I'd make sure it's something proportional in expense to the risk of theft or damage at your office.  I know someone who takes their work keeb to and from the office every day in a case, but that seems quite excessive to me.
