Welcome to the community TN! Funny, those are also my initials ^^ .
Could you give us some pointers as to exactly what you're looking for in a keyboard? Here's a few things that would help along:
-would you prefer clicky, tactile or linear switches?
-do you have a light, medium or heavy typing hand?
-does the board have to be very sturdy or is build quality not a priority?
-does the board have to be new and/or do you have a PS/2 port?
-do you have any special requirements such as backlighting, board being very silent or exceptionally noisy, etc.?
Personally I would recommend everyone to start off with an old Alps board such as the Dell AT101W. These are very cheap (~$20), yet very well-built, and have a switch that is rather gradually tactile so between tactile and linear, and are loud enough to qualify almost as clicky, so they do everything, and should give you a good idea of what you might want in a switch. They're also common and available in American, European and Japanese layout. They do need a PS/2 port however - if you only have USB, you will need an active converter, or your computer won't understand the keyboard. Slightly more upmarket Alps boards (~$40-50) will get you more specialised, slightly higher-spec switches, though not necessarily in as sturdy a board as the AT101W.
Many people will advise you to go straight to Cherry boards, which have the advantage of being able to be bought new, and with USB connectors. Cherry switches are best enjoyed as linears however; if you prefer noticeably tactile switches, Cherry might not be ideal, or at least, not in my opinion.
