So I've been playing around with Cherry G84-4100 and I find the switch is not as bad as some people claimed. I kind of like the switch, it's like MX Brown short throw.
BUT the problem is, I use number pad and window key a lot (this keyboard actually doesn't have window key at all) so the layout just doesn't work for me.
On top of that I think it's meant to be a compact keyboard so the keys are actually smaller than regular sized keys. Typing on it feels a bit crammed.
Anyone know if there's any full size and regular spacing Cherry ML keyboard out there?

The Optimus Maximus has should have regular spacing. However there are a few smaller keys, such as the backspace, back slash, shift keys.

Ohhhhhh I did a search earlier and didn't see that one. But cool thanks dude !
EDIT: Actually I just took a look, they all seems to have small spacing and kind of semi compact layout. I'm guessing the G84 line is meant for smaller keyboards. :(

LOL I also don't want to spend $1000 or something like that.

That one look like it might have tiny spacing also, though I could be wrong. :P

Maybe grab one of the ML Dolch flexpac keyboards? It's one of the few ML models that use a normal ANSI layout with all usual keysizes. For ISO there are a couple cool Tandberg models with awesome spherical keycaps that you might be interested in.
