I'm in the same boat. I bought a dumb $40 keyboard just to get my feet wet, and now I'm sold on the hobby. Now to just find a cool 100% and a key set that isn't pre-ordered out by 2 years...

My $10 board is a 100%, but I switched to an 89 key and i love it. None of those stupid 'page up,' 'page down' type keys, the num pad is just moved over

Hey! Don't diss the navigation cluster.

I use the navigation cluster often, and never use the 10-key! That’s why there are so many cool layouts; everyone can find which layout best suits them.

10 key as in numpad? I don't use that either, my job doesn't require rapid number inputs. That's why I prefer 75/TKL, but not above or below.

Some people here use a macropad for numpad while keeping a smaller profile main board.

Yeah, numpad. I use it so infrequently that I don't even know its name! Haha
