Full keyboard, but if you don't use the numpad, TKL, but I still like having a full.

Full is best IMO, Used to using it all day and to move to something else such as TKL. I use the number pad all of the time, and it's just more easy that way

I love TKL and all, and if I wanted a super clean desk or didnt need the number pad at all, then I would have one. My DK9008 has served me well.

I use the hell out of a num pad, but I have a TKL keyboard and I prefer it. TKL's are much more comfortable to type on as they can be centered whereas a full keyboard can't.

Just the number pad, so a few inches.

If I was always going to LAN parties or just always mobile, then I would definitely want a TKL, but unfortunately I seldom leave the house and I always use the numpad so Full for me...

Love having the numpad but I'm doing quite alright with my new TKL, Corsair k65.

I've only got full keyboards but I bought my first tenkeyless today.

I'll carry that one around to the office and college if I'm feeling obnoxious.

Truth. 60% + Key Pad is a combo that is too good.
