Need suggestions for a laptop with a crunchy keyboard

Hardware

For the longest time I’ve had a 2015 MacBook Pro but it broke a couple of years ago and I ended up upgrading to a PC with higher specs. Now in 2025, I’ve begun working as a teacher and would appreciate being able to work on the go. I’m looking for a laptop that’s preferably under $500. I thought about replacing my MacBook because it’s about $180 on eBay but I don’t know. I wanted to see if I could get some suggestions. I love the keyboard I have at home, it’s a gaming keyboard with the perfect click, so I’d want a laptop with that but it’s not a deal breaker. I just mainly want something I can use to write and work on slides, but doesn’t look or feel like a Chromebook. Thank you!
