    Looks cool but I will never buy a keyboard for my main computer without a numpad or at least a matching external one.

      Well the C64 didn’t come with a numpad either, and the tenkeyless format is way more popular than full sized keyboards with mechanical keyboard enthusiasts, at which this keyboard is aimed.

      I went numpadless 12 years ago with a Filco TKL, never looked back. A full size keyboard just feels awkward to use now with all the deskspace it takes up.

      Plastic-y is a feature for keyboards like this. Clicky switches need a hollow plastic case to sound nice.

      I have an NCR80 (a light plastic Cherry G80 clone) and it sounds glorious with Kailh Box Jade switches.
