You can buy keyboards without it or pop the button off. I don't think this is a great example of being unable to repair something.

- Avamander 7y agoHow would you go about and rebrand the button on a common laptop? Stickers wear down, look ugly, break backlighting. Using acetone will leave an ugly transparent spot or ruin the texture. There's basically no nice way to fix many of the keyboards. Imagine if every single one of your PCs had to show the windows logo on startup, right now it's just on your keyboard.

- jodrellblank 7y agoImagine if every single one of your PCs had to show the windows logo on startup My keyboards have a dollar symbol on the keyboard, a currency I don't use and have never used and no major country in this continent (Europe) uses. It's high time we had the right to remove this nationalist/capitalist advertising from our devices. Imagine if every single one of your computers had to show a dollar symbol on startup, right now it's just on your keyboard.
- Avamander 7y agoYeah, and that dollar symbol isn't the only symbol on the key, also provides you the information what the key does and allows you to type it and is used in many programming languages in addition to countries with the currency. The super key on the other hand with Windows logo provides no practical purpose, doesn't describe what the button does and is absolutely meaningless when you're not using Windows. The logo is just advertising, the dollar symbol is not.
