Damned Keyboard Layout

Post by adx »

i really do hate some keyboard manufacturers change the keyboard layout, some manufacturers change the position of the backslash key. Most of the keyboard had it on the left side of the backspace but some damned manuFUCKturers placed it on the left side of the right shift key, well i sort of hate especially when you're typing commands in prompt anf always ending up hitting the wrong key

Yes, tis damned annoying...
After extended use, you become accustomed to the layout, but if you constantly switch between the two, it can be very difficult....

also, those Power, Sleep && Wake Up keys, i always mispressed them because they're right on top of arrow keys, you would always suppose that the keys on top of your arrow keys are PgDn, End && Del,

Argh...I hate power management keys. Nothing but trouble in Windows 98SE (I refuse to upgrade to Win XP). Hit any of them by accident, and the system blue-screens.
