Reply to comment by xxInsanex in My budget build, I call her Vapor Ice by sartaingerous

I'm trying to understand before committing a budget to it. From what I'm reading, this isn't a hobby for me.

I was curious about some of the hackeyboard firmwares and was toying with the idea of a Commodore clone type thing for the kids to play the retro game on.

150$ is a baseline for a build that will be noticeably better than a gaming keyboard - Keychron V series (100$ for fully prebuilt, and then modding), Akko, etc.

Keychron is probably one of the best entries, as their Q/V series have VIA and QMK support (proper remapping, layers, etc.), are easily moddable and prebuilt versions offer great value, giving switches + PBT keycaps for 20-30$.
