At home, I have several old Dell typist "clicky clack" keyboards. Gives good feedback.

Right now, I have my notebook on a tray raising the screen up, and have attached to it a laser mouse, and a MS keyboard I got cheap at Best Buy, which has a nice feel, the keys go down a fair amount, and I can get a clicky clack sound if I want. Usually it is only the right thumb on the space bar that makes a lot of noise.

MS Digital Media Keyboard 300, ultra thin.
All sorts of buttons, special keys, a ratchet type flip out on the bottom that will put the keyboard at the desired angle if needed. Spill resistant.

It cost about $12 on closeout at Best Buy when I bought it to substitute for a Dell that went out. I got the Dell going again, and put the MS in my travel bag.
I have given away other keyboards that cost a lot more, but this one I like and keep.
