For a long time our main server was in a cabinet in the corner of one of the classrooms. In order to get Monitor, Keyboard, and case in the space normally used by a 25" or 27" TV (it was a lockable AV rolling cabinet.) We got a Happy Hacking Keyboard. Once you get used to the "missing" keys or more correctly the overlays (shift, control, function) that get you delete instead of backspace, arrow keys, etc its not a bad little keyboard.
