I've spent years with a lovely huge IBM Model M.
Then I've moved to a TKL (no numpad) keyboard: no pain at all, except (sometimes) when in need for Windows Alt-numpad sequences for special characters.
Then I've moved to a 68 keys split keyboard! And I love it, since I (almost perfectly) customised it for my needs.
And I'm now thinking to go to a 42-keys split keyboard... (see Piantor Pro)
