Does a minimum keyboard exist commercially? [closed]
I was wondering if I can buy (for some reasonable amount) a keyboard, which has only the keys that I use:
Has:
- esc, F1-F12, delete, home, end, page up, page down
- tilde, numbers, backspace
Tab, left Shift, left Control, left Alt
- space, letters, commas, braces, enter
Doesn't have:
Caps Lock, Windows key, drop down menu invocation
right Ctrl, Shift, Alt
- numpad
Of course this would be a non-standard layout and will require a bit of tinkering to work with any OS. But are they sold? A quick amazon search yields nothing.

This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
- "Questions seeking for hardware shopping recommendations are off-topic because they are often relevant only to the question author at the time the question was asked and tend to become obsolete quickly. Instead of asking what to buy, try asking how to find out what suits your needs." – gronostaj, Keltari, Toto, mtak, PeterH

The 75% format is, as far as I know, closest to what you're describing. It's not a standard format, though, and I doubt you'll find commercially available keyboards of this size.
You can either get a 60% keyboard which has F_ keys and text navigation keys accessible with modifier key (similar to the Fn key in laptops), or a tenkeyless keyboard which is simply a standard keyboard without a numpad.
