seems fine to me
Mine would dispense beer. I feel like I don’t need to explain the why.
Do we really need 12 ‘F’ keys?
Mine would dispense shaving cream. I feel like I don’t need to explain the why.
Mine would dispense argumentations. I feel like i don’t need to explain the why.
One button instead of the combi Alt-Tab, and one instead of Ctrl-Alt-Delete.
@rebbel I totally agree about the Alt-Tab! I think the Ctrl-Alt-Delete is three keys instead one so people don’t hit it by accident.
Personally, I would like to see the Delete have a consistent place. It is in a completely different spot on my husband’s laptop than on mine. Same for Home, End, Page Up and Page Down, but Delete is the one that bothers me the most.
The QWERTY design was made for typewriters to be inefficient, because, if someone typed too fast, the typewriter would jam up. Now, with computers, that design is seen by many as being obsolete and worthless, so other, more efficient layouts, like Dvorak, were made, but they are yet to achieve wide popularity.
However, due to its lack of popularity, it remains to be seen exactly how much more efficient a different layout may be.
Personally, I would stick to the standard QWERTY, just out of laziness. I already took a typing class, I’m not taking another!
I would like a control key near the page up and page down section of the keyboard. It would make it easier to navigate in excel and word.
Replace the microsoft logo key with a little penguin.
make all keyboards touch screens with LCARS design. (and the beep sound everytime you press a button.)
Well I use my laptop (and a lot) and underneath the keyboard is getting a bit dirty. What I would like to change would be to have a keyboard that you can slide the top out (the keys) of the computer so you can clean underneath easily. I really cba with all these computer vacuums and shiz.
