We have people at work that INSIST they need an external keyboard instead of the built in one.

I could understand if the laptop was off to the side or something. But they’ll just scoot the laptop back 6 inches then place the Apple Magic Keyboard exactly where the laptop was.

Apple Magic Keyboard

There's no point then

Ha, I better not tell you about the Apple Keyboard I use with my Linux laptop then. Don’t like macOS much, but I love their flat keyboards.

Oh, and then I pair it with a very boring Dell mouse for extra style.

It’s too bad than no other OS has made the strides to compete with the Magic Trackpad though.

I’m happy with the flat keyboard too, but the touch pad is the killer interface on Macs

Have you tried the Logitech Mx keys? They’re very similar to the Magic Keyboard. Not quite as small, but then you have less of the Mac keyboard on non Mac OS quirks.
