Sorry, got distracted. *rubs eyes*

This should be in [livejournal.com profile] tech_support, not here.

It's because you're using a windows computer, not a mac, which has a far better designed keyboard.

What I can't figure out is why all these silly PC and Mac keyboards have a caps lock key where the control key should be...

Luckily xmodmap can fix that kind of silliness.

OMG, you look at the keyboard?

It's because you keep bending over and looking away from the keyboard. Turn around, and you should be fine.

You could always dig up a Commodore Amiga - they had one of those :)

For some reason I just don't think this discussion is complete without a picture of the infamous Space Cadet keyboard (http://catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/S/space-cadet-keyboard.html):

(insert standard flame about posting in the wrong community)

I've seen keyboards where the caps lock light is not in the top right. Example #1: my current laptop has it just below the screen and just right of middle. #2: an older laptop has it in a bank of lights above F1-F4. #3: ye olde Acorns had it in the caps lock key.

Is norrmal for geek sex to be with technics. They are for this.

They used to have caps locks on the actual key itself... at least, I seem to remember something like that happening sometime in the distant past...?

You'd think that whoever made the jpg would have been such a geek they could have got the compression optimised enough so you could make out what's on the non-letter keys! It's not even a particularly small file (in size).

Oh well.

Um, sorry, OP - if you want a bunch of geekboys to come up with coherent answers, it helps if you pick the right community and do not choose an icon which causes their eyes and brain to fall out of their heads, thus rendering them useless.

Us geekgirls, on the other hand, will just tend to go *yawn*. Which is also pretty useless in its own way.

Oh look, a troll.

Amazing, isn't it? A geek posts a legitimate question and gets flambe'd. A sock puppet windup account posts crap and gets petted purely for having an ass icon.

Ahhh just leave it, it's always amusing to see the creativeness that shines through in this community.

I guess I ain't a boy no more...that shit stopped impressing me years ago when I found out WOMEN rock, and girls are a waste of time, money and testosterone.

*yawn*

Some give this chick a myspace link.

When master the keyboard you have, look you will not have to.
