I always wondered this too. But I have a keyboard with these buttons (really just the Fn keys and an "alternative Fn" function lock key that sends the appropriate shortcuts to Windows) and I never use them. As a touch typist I find it too much of a distraction to move my fingers off the home row and end up sticking with the shortcuts. I'm not sure where else you could really put them without the same problem occurring. Maybe its time to cut our alphabet down to 19 letters and replace the bottom row of alphas with these functions.
- tcarnell 15y agoI have also used keyboards that have extra buttons for things like this, but somehow I have felt reluctant to make the effort to use them because they are not standard and most other keyboards dont have them, which would frustrate me more! Who is in charge of keyboard standards? If there isn't anybody, could we start a new keyboard layout organization!?!?
