Looking for a keyboard.

78 key.
Wired.
Large print/seniors/high contrast.....it goes by different names.

I don't want xtra large keys.

I'm looking to make the keyboard smaller by dropping off the unused number pad.

Looks like a box full of key caps.

I need the entire keyboard.

I have no interest in mech keys or RGB or replacing all the key caps.

Perhaps some day I'll stumble across a large print small key board.

The keyboard just above is known as a 60% or 60 key Keyboard. I found more using that in my searches.

For me I researched over a year ago about keyboard tech since I found I was wearing off the paint too fast. My view is they don't make them like they used to but in that search I learned about the various MX key styles (brown, blue, etc.) and how that set the feel of the keys. I settled on MX Brown for what I like.

-> As to keycap wear I went to Double Shot keycaps. This is the way. Why? Because it's not just some screen print on the top but actual different plastic colors. And yes, I don't see the letters fading out at all now. As to the LED it does help on contrast so when I do have to look at the keyboard, the contrast is much better.
