My work desktop...

Pic's dicked up because my monitors are mismatched, so I get weird stuff showing on the left side. Doesn't look like that under normal use.

edit:
The outside...

Honor 7X looks interesting
I'd try to go away from Apple/Samsung again but every phone I've used that isn't one of the two the cameras absolutely suck compared to time-equivalent Samsung phones. My wife for a while went back to the iPhone solely for the camera.

How is it typing on round keycaps?
I can't touch type, so I'm no speeddemon regardless, but after adjusting, I do pretty well with it. I was fatfingering keys a lot for the first couple months, but I seldom do that now, and the sensitivity of switches makes typing easy. I especially notice it on the number pad which is where I do my heaviest "typing". Based purely on function, I still think the model M is without equal, but with looks figured in, and my negligible typing skills, I prefer this(AZIO Retro).

Sigh, the dotard decided to light a powder keg in Jerusalem to distract people.

Those red, blue or brown switches?

Blue switches. Dunno how it compares to other modern mechanicals, but I like them.
I have blue, red, and brown switch keyboards. Blue is loud but typing is the most accurate. Brown feels nearly identical but is quieter, which is my preference.

Reds suck. I mean that. Unless you're great at typing there's no room for error. You accidentally breathe on a red switch and it registers.

Lol got to like when people call to report a trouble and have like zero information. I'm sorry sir our crystal ball server is down I can't help you at the moment.

It's your job to ask the client questions to get the answers you need to assist them. Non techies often have difficulty in thinking like you do. Now, get back to work and do your job! :D

Most of the time it is about complete lack of imagination than technical knowledge.
