There. I fixed your keyboard.
>>
You forgot the numpad. Also stuffing all the modifier keys to one is retarded. You don't use the meta key or the function key that often. They can be on the other side. Backspace and delete being the same key is retarded as well.
>>
>>108470638
nobody uses the right alt/ctrl/shift
>>
>>108470659
I do rarely, however you could throw the meta and function key there to make the left side far less crowded.
>>
>>108470659
I use right control for emacs movement on laptop when I'm being lazy and programming one handed. I use right alt for us symbolic alt gr keys so I can type special symbols like a eurofag
>>

Nobody uses caps lock.

i'm thinking you could probably get the arrow keys on WASD and maybe get the number keys down too, but haven't decided how yet

I had an Ultra Classic, lasted me a good 10 years, but it recently stopped working. Since I can't afford a new one now, and I don't know if anyone here has a clue how to repair it, I just ordered some $20 chink one. Hoping it won't suck too much.
>>
>>108470659
shift + > / shift + < are used to changed songs on rmpc so it's easier to use right shift for that
>>
>>108476023
Unicomp will repair it, though I think the starting price on that is $60
Still worth shooting them an email

CTRL, obviously. We can get rid of CAPSLOCK altogether. Also, SHIFT+SPACE should be the underscore _. Our thumb is too free and mobile for it to only be used for typing SPACE.

>>108477601
it's 17% wider and nearly 40% taller than the k400

the form factors of both are more suitable to limited use options, where space is a priority

>>108477705
it has a cable so it is not comparable to the k400
it is also mechanical

what layout is this?
>>
>>108470626
Unusable, literally. Where is AltGr? I use it all the time for special characters.
>>
>>108470626
I need R-control and pageup/down/home/end because I use those combos all the time when flipping through internet tabs and scrolling pages.

Also you need both L and R-shift. Doing something like a capital A is awkward if you only have an L-shift. Get rid of caps lock though, nobody uses that shit.
