Most of the new comers to mkb thread also wish to buy a full layout.
Do you really need the tenkey on the right side of the keyboard?

Recommendation:-
- Filco Majestouch 2 (highly recommended, but price > RM300)
- Ducky Zero (Less than RM300, reliable and high quality)

Well, in my case, I always use the numpads for entering numbers, mainly because I enter numbers far faster with it. I usually only use the number rows to enter the symbols.

That's why my keyboards will always be full size. If I were to work with a laptop for a prolonged time, I will connect an external full-size keyboard to it.

IIRC, outside MKB enthusiast circles, tenkeyless keyboards are not popular outside USA.

To people with LED on their keyboards :

Do you feel that your backlit is 'nothing special' after awhile ? The feeling that you don't even need it ..

My LED backlight is turned on all the time. A must even at night.

Can't tahan at all.
It is too distracting dont you think so ?
*
No, it isn't. The other way around is correct.

If I get a mechanical keyboard, they must be
- full size.
- has linear switches.
- must have backlight.

That's why keyboards like HHKB Pro 2 is never in my radar at any time even if I can afford them.

So, you looking on your keyboard while typing.

Why you like full size? you always using numpad?

I always use the numpad. Much faster when it comes to entering numbers, and only one hand is needed. I do not look at the keyboard when typing.
