help Mountain Everest 60 FAQ
What does 60 percent mean on the Mountain Everest 60?
It is a compact 60 percent layout that keeps arrow keys, and Mountain lists a custom 64-key US ANSI layout. It omits the usual full-size number pad to save desk space ([Mountain specifications](https://mountain.gg/keyboards/everest-60)).
Can I add a number pad later?
Yes, the Everest 60 Numpad is a separately sold module that can be hot-plugged on either the left or right side. The regular Everest numpad and Media Dock are not compatible with the Everest 60, so buy the 60-specific module ([Mountain launch announcement](https://mountain.gg/news/mountain-launches-everest-60)).
Can I change the switches without soldering?
Yes, Everest 60 uses hot-swappable sockets compatible with 3-pin plate-mounted or 5-pin PCB-mounted Cherry MX-style switches. Mountain ships the keyboard with its own switches, but you can replace them with compatible parts ([Mountain specifications](https://mountain.gg/keyboards/everest-60)).
Does Mountain Base Camp work on Mac?
Mountain lists Base Camp software support as Windows only, although the keyboard itself is plug and play without installing drivers. You can type on another operating system, but advanced profiles and lighting control may need a Windows machine ([Mountain support](https://mountain.gg/support/everest-60/)).
