Remember Microsoft Sculpt Keyboard? It was legendary in retrospect. It was a tenkeyless design with a detached numpad, yet fully functional as a full-sized keyboard. It didn’t need additional software to set up — it was pure plug and play. I had written simple configurations for Sculpt Keyboards before; it was a testament of what the ergonomic keyboard was capable of.

MX Mechanical Mini Spiel
I had used full-sized MX Mechanical for a while. As much as I appreciated how it met most of my demands, there was always the lingering sense of doubt in myself — wouldn’t a smaller keyboard have fared better on desk. After all, desk space is always a prime real estate for me. I prefer to work on large draft tables and black boards, but they are not always available. Seeing as the split keyboard — split between the numpad and the remaining TKL (Tenkeyless) — is in a niche market, full-sized keyboard seemed liked an only option.
MX Keys for Mac, after 3 Years

My search for go-to Mac keyboard led to Logitech. I recall the brand synonymous at one point for experimental extended battery design, though it quickly got out of hand with ridiculous solar-powered keyboard.
