    What's the benefit to losing the numpad on that keyboard, aside from the space saving? I personally can't imagine doing my job without a numpad.

Elevating the laptop makes it more difficult to use the laptop keyboard, but regardless, my mechanical keyboard is much more comfortable and efficient than the laptop one anyway. You can feel the tactility in this video.

    I rarely use the numpad enough to justify having it, plus it lets me reduce the distance of my hands between the keyboard and the tablet (tablets really take up a lot of space).

    AMAZING
    It's the Rolls Royce of desk chairs. Definitely recommend you try one for a week.

    I'll consider it once I'm done school.

    Cost per use dwindles down to a few dimes per day if it lasts several years.

    Comes with a 12 year warranty. Plus, if you're an independent contractor like me, you can write it off your taxes.
