The only thing that will change it make it hard to turn off, so that we'll have users going for months with their caps lock on because they can't find where to switch it back.
That would be a significant deviation from today... how, exactly?
I use the HappyHacker keyboard and that has a LOT keys less. http://houghi.org/shots/hh.jpg So how come I am able to do the same things that other people are able to do with more keys? (Yes, even the KVM stuff)
KVM? Diamond-O. It's because you have an extra modifier key to hide the buttons, not because you're an amazing "hacker." Laptops have been doing the same thing for years. If we added a few more of those super-special modifier keys, I think we could get the keyboard down to about 35 keys total. How does that sound?
