There is always at least one fatal loving flaw that ruins keyboards for me. Right now I'm using just a plain Dell keyboard that has media controls on it. It's not fantastic, but they keys are all in the right places and sizes, the only big complaint I have is that the USB ports aren't high-speed. I like the Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000, but the 'long keys' such as shift and ctrl break. Junk. I loved the original Microsoft ergonomic keyboards, but they're not USB and they don't have a mute/volume control. They did mess up the arrows keys, though. The newer versions are just weird. I've always liked the 90's Macintosh ADB keyboards as well. Gyration makes a nice, laptop-style keyboard. It's small, but eats batteries and has a Fn key in the bottom left corner, where I demand a ctrl key be.

Happy Hacker sucks, and if you're paying $275 for one...Steakandchips posted:Who the gently caress TRAINS to touch type? It comes naturally as long as you've been using a computer since you grew up. Training to actually type correctly isn't the same as just typing a lot. Sure, you can type 'wrong' and still type fast, but you'll be faster if you do it 'right'. I took a year of keyboarding in high school, it was great. I thought I could type fast before that class but it really helped. T, h, e, space, b, r, o, w, n, space, f, o, x... Ca-chunk chunk chunk, that was the last year they had electronic typewriters, then they moved to computers. They brought some 'competitive typist' in, it was amazing to see the guy do 150wpm typing out loving pages from Shakespeare. And then he'd do it with mittens on. ~Coxy posted:Assuming that you don't necessarily want a mechanical keyboard (since you didn't mention in your post), check out the Apple chiclet keyboard or its cheaper knockoffs. They have Function keys (half height) but no number pad/arrow key cluster. Here's my deal with the new Apple keyboards: the aluminum of the keyboard touching my fingernails drives me crazy. I either have to cut my nails every 3 days, or I can't use them. I know I should just be able to go a little lower on the keys but it doesn't happen. I recently bought one of these:  But the curve is too much and the keys are too heavy. I'm hoping it will break in, but I went back to the aluminum keyboard that came with my Mac for today. I'll probably find a G3-style keyboard to use.

Are there any cheaper, small keyboards similar to the happy hacker or Apple keyboard? I don't need a number pad or anything. But I need function keys.

~Coxy posted:Or if you actively don't want a numpad: That one looks nice but it also looks like it came from the dollar store. Is there something between $15 and $100? Dell should just make a numpad-less version of their cheap keyboard.

I like the Lenovo/Apple keyboards without a ten-key, because the layout is exactly like their laptops.

What's the cheapest way to get that Lenovo keyboard that looks like their T-series laptop keyboards, with the trackpoint and all? I have the old one at work that I got about 6-7 years ago with the non-chiclet keys, but I want one for home. ThinkPad Compact USB Keyboard with TrackPoint US English Part number: 0B47190
