Currently got this one on my work laptop. Model M terminal board with internal converter. The only layout changes I made versus a normal 102-key are that RCtrl is is a Windows key, and the four keys along the right side of the numpad are =, -, +, and the normal Enter.

I'd get one of the beamsprings as well, but they are just so ridiculously thick and bulky that I don't think it would work for me.

True, that's where you have to start thinking about re-working your furniture to fit your tech. I guess an OSHA directive came down that keyboards shouldn't be that tall, and that's part of what led to the buckling spring on the F, as well as other stuff, like Space Invader switches and a certain German company making little polyhedral switches with cross-mount keycaps. Wonder how that worked out?
