Looking for a new keyboard

It's not just about the switches that the keys use. For me, it also matters how big the keys are and how far they are spaced apart. One thing I dislike are those "full size" keyboards that have small keys and are placed so close together that it's actually uncomfortable to use. In terms of key size, imagine the keys on the Razer Orbweaver gaming keypad. I use that for when I am gaming and hardly use my keyboard other than for chatting in-game or very few other things. In terms of spacing between keys, well... I guess, imagine the first generation of PCs and their keyboards..?? waaaaay back in the 80s/90s..?? Edit : I just had a look at the IBM keyboard you linked.. look at the spacing between the keys..!! THAT is the thing I am after as well.!!

Looking for a new keyboard

Brand does not matter so long as it is a full size keyboard has that mechanical (manual typewriter) typing feel and the key size and spacing are big enough. Those are the 4 things that are important. I have nice and long fingers.. don't like the feel of those keyboards with smaller keys spaced closer together.. feels cramped and uncomfortable. Doesn't matter whether the keys themselves are loud and clicky or not. I did spend some of my teenage years typing on an actual manual typewriter so I do seem to hit my keyboard keys with some force even after all these years so the kind of keyboard I am looking for would need to be able to withstand that sort of 'fast and furious' typing.!! LOL

[TotW] Am I Doing it Wrong?

hmmm... i just tried it, scrolling the screen with the middle finger on the scroll wheel... not really too difficult, possibly something i can get used to if i want to... and using my Naga with my left hand..?? that's a big ask for my left pinkie..!! but if it's only for moving the cursor on the screen and just the left/right clicks and scroll wheel, left hand works fine as well. I usually type with all my fingers and my right thumb (on the spacebar) but there are times where i'd type on the keyboard one handed (like if i had food in one of my hands) and i seem to be ok with typing with either hand though not as fast as when i do with both hands. sometimes, it's about a person's neuroplasticity. it's fun..!!
