TKL doesn't have the num-pad

60% doesn't have the function row (F-keys), or arrows, print screen etc. It's just the keys you use to type (alphanumerics + modifiers such as enter, ctrl etc)

Ah, glad someone had a thread up just to clear up this difference for me thanks.

To ask another question, what would this be considered


Is this still considered TKL? Or is it what you call a 75% keyboard?

Jack, we call that a 75% board.
