Filco Ninja Majestouch-2, Tenkeyless is one, only 14" in length. Basically any tenkeyless (TKL) will be shorter in length than the one you are suggesting.

Do you need the numpad?

They were smart to change the name cuz Dearmo would have been terrible, and probably not, though I mainly bought it cuz I like the way it looks, and that it nicely matches my RAT.

Yeah i was looking at a full keyboard that looks good. Nice back light keys and stuff. The gigabyte one is the only i have seen that meets my needs.

I just got a cooler master storm quickfire rapid, and I can't believe how much easier to type on this thing is. I can type much faster than on my old keyboard. MX blue key switches are awesome for typing.

Okay, I'm confused.

I know what you mean, but it was a bit confusing to me for a second. I don't know why. Same here, although I eventually got used to that with a record breaking 134wpm with my mechanical, crushing my old record of 116wpm with scissor switches/rubber dome.

wow, I was doing 30 WPM on my old keyboard, and now I am getting about 60. I'm not great at typing.

Don't worry. Piano counts as my training.

I actually feel like typing tests aren't a very accurate way of testing our speed. The thing is that we can probably type faster while we aren't doing the typing races because we don't have to process the text that we have to type. We just think of something and type it. I took 2 videos of me 1. doing a typing test (it was a failure. 80wpm. That's considerably slow for me) and 2. typing regularly (OCN stuff) and it looked like I was typing faster when going through OCN.
