Why do companies insist on messing with laptop keyboard layouts? Where's the menu key? Where are the Home, PgDn, PgUp, and End keys? I've used cheap sub 300-dollar laptops with keyboards more complete than this.
The silver lining here is that Framework keyboards are replaceable in theory. I'll wait until a proper keyboard gets released.

- Zuiii 4y ago> Seems gone. I can't say I've personally ever used it I rely on it heavily and I'm sure many others do to. I wish framework included the key in their study as well. Ether way, no menu key == no buy from me.
- celu 4y agoYou might be a rarity here. I've never heard of anyone using the menu key, and most don't even know what it is. I'm honestly kind of curious how you use it. In my experience, almost anything on the menu it opens has a common shortcut

- TapamN 4y agoIf someone from Framework is reading this, page up and page down are among my most used keys. Having to use an extra hand for something so common is crazy. I absolutely will not buy a laptop or standalone keyboard without dedicated page up and page down keys. Ideally, page up and down will be next to the arrow keys (look at a Thinkpad keyboard), but off to the side is still better than not existing.
