==Layout== [[File:G80-1800.jpg|300px|thumb|right|A modern G80-1800 with Windows keys and logo of the corporation that ordered it]] Compared to IBM's classic [[IBM Enhanced Keyboard|enhanced]] layout, the numerical key pad has been moved closer to the main keyboard with the arrow keys squeezed in-between and down. The nav cluster has been moved to the top and the Print Screen, Scroll Lock and Pause/Break keys have been moved into a column to the right of it. To make space, the numpad-0 key and the numpad-<plus> key have been shrunk to 1 unit in size. In comparison to the [[Cherry G80-3000]], several keys now belong on a different row. These keycaps have a different profile (most noticeably height) and as such, are not fully interchangeable between the G80-1800 and G80-3000. Delete, End, PgDn, numpad-<minus>, β, β, β are so affected. The right Shift key is 1.75 units wide and has no stabilizer. This key does not fit the [[Cherry G80-11800|G80-11800]] and [[Cherry G80-11900|G80-11900]] where this key is 2 units wide and has a stabilizer bar. The keys on the space-bar row on the main keyboard are the same as on the [[Cherry G80-11800|G80-11800]] and [[Cherry G80-11900|G80-11900]] series. On the variations with Windows keys, the space bar is 6 units wide and the other keys are one unit wide. The ''winkeyless'' variants had 1.5 unit Ctrl and Alt keys and full 7-unit space bar as on the winkeyless G80-3000 but all shuffled to the left side.
