I'd like to buy my new keyboard, and I saw IBM Model M. I love that sound, but suspicious that It is appropriate for my work(coding, writing, and so on.).
Should I select another keyboard?

Yes the buckling spring does get tiring after a while. Get something with cherry switches
Buckling Spring is noisy as hell and also completely unsuited if you play any games at all.
I've owned a Model M and two Unicomp Ultra Classics. The Model M had weird problems with keys that would get stuck and wouldn't bounce back right, and both Unicomps had n-key rollover problems and completely died on me after a few years of use.
I'm now on some $10 shitter Microsoft keyboard and I couldn't be happier. Maybe one day I'll get a mechanical keyboard....maybe.
That's horrible, okay. I'll go find another keyboard right now.

Go for the buckling spring if you just do light programming or writing. But if you're literally writing all day the buckling spring will fuck you up.
Buckling springs are fine. I've used two Model Ms and currently a Unicomp that is just excellent.

How long have you owned the Unicomp? I had one for work and home - one of them died completely, the other one had keys stop working.
