We always talk about how the number pad makes no sense on the right. We don't have it on our keyboards (we prefer layers) but if it were to be, it'd be on the left.

Thanks for the kind words! We got a lot more coming!
Fun video, cool seeing the boys chat
Sounds beautiful
Looks great. Numpad on the left, that's genius. And who will make a keyboard with all keys to the left of the Q column and to the right of the P column, moved to the center? Space, Enter, Backspace and Shift should all be thumb keys. Other could best be handled by the index finger.
