I have both the classic and spacesaver models and the spacesaver is
definitely smaller. The size of the keys/keyboard layout are the same,
however, it's the size of the casing that is different. There is more
area to left and right and a much larger area to the north of the
function keys. The classic weighs about ~1 pound more than the
spacesaver, too. Compared to any other modern keyboard the spacesaver
is probably the same or bigger, though. But my point is that the
original is huge. :)
