Additional benefit of the TKL: office friendly with included dampeners, first mechanical(ish) I feel non-rude wanting to use in a shared office environment.

Just realized I didn't mention the actual keyboard, too much inside baseball on this thread I guess -- you knew what I was talking about at least, the Novatouch TKL: http://gaming.coolermaster.com/en/products/keyboards/novatou...

It is interesting that in the time since I purchased it, they toned down the gaming aspect in the marketing.
