I actually own four separate Yubikeys for different purposes, all self purchased.

Got one on my personal Windows desktop, one on my personal MacBook Air, one on my "work" laptop, and the last one stays on my key chain so its mobile with me wherever I go.

Each have a separate private/public key pair, and I have a text file available in a git repo that contains all 4 public keys, so it is an easy copy-paste from there into whatever service I want any (or all) keys associated with.

Each key is also a different model, so I have experience with many of their various styles :)
