I am selling a Ducky 1087 w/ Black Switches that I just received today in the mail from PCHome. I decided I would rather have a Filco Tenkeyless or Ducky 1087 with Blue or Brown Switches so I can carry it around for typing purposes. So I am willing to sale it for $100 Shipped or trade for a Blue or Brown Switch variant.

dear people of geekhack, please stop calling the Ducky tenkeyless when it's not a filco. It's a filco term and it has no association with any other 87-keyed keyboard!

Good luck with the sale of your Ducky 1087.

Ha I admit when I am wrong. I am new to the mechanical keyboard branding so I just assumed that "Tenkeyless" signified all 87-keyed boards. Now I know!

The right-hand number cluster and the style of typing used with it are both referred to as tenkey. So a keyboard without it is tenkeyless.

It's a keyboard without a "ten-key." The term originated with mechanical adding machines from the early 1900s (prior to the Standard, most adding machines were multiple rows with 9 or 5 digits per row), so I'm fairly sure it's pretty safe to call any keyboard without a numberpad "tenkeyless." Besides, "numberpadless" is too awkward =X And looks a little too much like numberpaddles D:

And we all know what happens when numberpaddles get brought in to anything D:

oh this is awkward!

Ohhh, i rudely retract my previous statements, let it be known that tenkeyless is a term that can be used across the board. And also let it be known that if you listened to a Panda, then you're more of an idiot than the Panda

Who listens to panda's anyways!

Who cares? If you say tenkeyless everyone knows what you mean, it's clear concise, no bs.

Death by the numbers?

I'm interested in this keyboard, but I would like to see pictures. Is that possible?

msiegel · « **Reply #16 on:** Fri, 24 December 2010, 15:42:08 »

if the OP pulls it out of the box to take pictures, it won't be NIB anymore!

Segovax · « **Reply #17 on:** Fri, 24 December 2010, 16:06:55 »

I guess that's true. :redface:

msiegel · « **Reply #18 on:** Fri, 24 December 2010, 16:10:26 »

i'll bet we can get them to do it. i searched, but did not find a photo of the thing

MysteryOfTime · « **Reply #19 on:** Sat, 25 December 2010, 10:28:42 »

I can take pictures if need be, I can do it when I get back home. Out of town currently at the moment for Christmas.

AndrewZorn · « **Reply #20 on:** Sun, 26 December 2010, 18:09:12 »

If it's NIB, don't ruin that for people who can't use a search engine.

msiegel · « **Reply #21 on:** Sun, 26 December 2010, 18:35:11 »

do we have a "stock photo" of the same model somewhere around here?

msiegel · « **Reply #22 on:** Sun, 26 December 2010, 20:23:22 »

MysteryOfTime · « **Reply #24 on:** Mon, 03 January 2011, 23:11:39 »

Bump, lowered price to $100 shipped in the US.
