When are we going to get a keyboard with proper set of keys in the right size? Like cursors, PgUp, PgDown, Home, End etc?
Also it's a shame they don't say where they make these laptops.

- marcellus23 5y ago> Like cursors, PgUp, PgDown, Home, End etc? This is a valid complaint for developer laptops (which this obviously is), but for general laptops I'd guess most users never touch PgUp, PgDown, Home, End, and probably couldn't even tell you what they do.
- GekkePrutser 5y agoYou'd be surprised. I even see my mother in her 70s doing it. Though of course when she started doing a "computer course" it involved WordPerfect 5.1 :) But things she could do back then like editing a config file would scare her in these days of glossy GUIs but these keys don't. Perhaps a millenial (or is it Gen Z?) has more issues with them as they've never known anything before the touchscreen :)
