Title: Mechanical Number Pad
Post by: godofdeath on Wed, 01 June 2011, 10:42:49

Want a mechanical number/key pad for the office

looking for the layout like that of the numberpad on a 104 keyboard + whatever extra buttons on top if there is any.

Can't believe I missed my chance to get it off ebay :(

I just searched for the $15 one on Ebay (search term: "Mechanical Switch Business Grade") and this popped up.

If you're willing to spend a bit more, you can get a Filco MX Brown Keypad (http://www.keyboardco.com/keyboard_details.asp?PRODUCT=620) from The Keyboard Co
