Check it:
SA caps, surprisingly few sets made in this profile, people seem to have something against spherical caps even though they're my favorite and even then DSA seems more popular for some reason. I have DSA caps on the keyboard I carry around for use on the go and for that context the low profile is preferable but for the board that never leaves my desk the additional sculpting is really nice, and I think it looks sick.

So you lug a fucking great keyboard around with you all day just coz you're too finiky to use the perfectly good keyboard on the laptop?
That's fucking mental.

I use a chrome book at work, I hate the keyboard!

None of us have mental or psychological issues here. We are all normal people just like the rest of the population.
Lamy is perfectly okay carrying around an additional keyboard, just like its okay for me to carry around a razorblade, lockpicks, and sometimes my gun.

I think it's pretty rad looking and that's great if it's better for your purposes. As far as my keyboard use goes I'm with Narc, I find the MacBook keyboard to be sufficient. What are the advantages you're looking for in substituting?

Can't imagine wanting to do without the number pad on a keyboard.

Verses a macbook keyboard (and I'll talk about the last generation since the new ones are the hottest garbage you could possibly put on a >$1000 computer), the main things I'm looking for are greater travel (distance that a key is depressed before activating), tactile feedback (usually brief drop in resistance at the point of activation, accompanied by a sound with "clicky" switches), and hysteresis (different resistance curves when depressing a key vs. releasing it). Cap shape and thickness also affect the feel, but that's pretty much just a matter of personal preference.

I can see both sides on the number pad thing. I have full size keyboards and use them regularly, and it's undoubtedly better than using the top row if you're typing out a lot of numbers. Originally I picked up a TKL just because I couldn't fit a full sized keyboard in by backpack. I didn't miss the number pad as much as I thought I would, and I found that since the numpad is on the right side of keyboard, and I use my right hand to use the mouse, I had to move my hand like half the distance to go from the mouse to the keyboard. It's a small thing but it's a motion we do an enormous number of times if you're using any kind of DE and when I use fullsized keyboards now I notice it and it's perceptibly slower.

How is it better than just using the top row? I can type numbers fucking s3am13551y in fluid motion while I'm typing the rest of my sentence. If I go to numpad I have half the fingers that I do for the top row.
Can't do this on a numpad

Very nice Lan Man Fam. I love the look of black with cyan/teal it's a lovely color scheme, simple and elegant.
