My only objection to wireless keyboards would be having to keep an eye to the charge of the battery.

I go through batteries in my headlamp so fast that it is almost worth trying to figured out a wired version.
Apple has a series of robots for dismantling their products so they can recycle them.
They are more impressive than their commercial products!

Main computing is done either on a 1 year old Google Pixel 5a or a 2 year old HP Chromebook. (I'll keep both until they stop getting security updates)
I also have an old Dell 6800 mobile workstation that I bought used 7 years ago for the rare case that I need a PC.

As Elon Musk says, the factory is 10x as hard as the product.

Windows 10 is fine. I don't like they are still trying to push "tiles" and other differences from the XP and 7 layouts, but it's pretty good.

My main computer is an eMac purchased new at the end of 2004. The built-in CRT monitor died years ago. A larger LCD monitor is plugged into it now. The original mouse quit working too, using a Microsoft mouse now. The scroll wheel was a nice upgrade! I'm typing this on the original 2004 keyboard.
I also have a HP Pavilion dm1 that was given to me that I sometimes use, but I prefer the ancient Mac.
I have a few other computers that were given to me, but they either have issues, or I haven't bothered trying them.
Yes, I need a new Mac.
