A year or so ago I spent probably 2 months to try and find a keyboard that had the layout I wanted.

Also when pressing Ctrl+F4 I use the outside of my hand to press Ctrl, then my index finger for F4. That means that the F4 key needs to be over or to the left of the #5 key, or else I can't reach.

'Fn' on the bottom left and 'Ctrl' to the right of it. ARGH!

This is the one big downside of Thinkpads. They're fantastic otherwise, but what kind of monster puts Fn to the left of Ctrl?

I hate when ThinkPad lovers point out that it can be remapped in BIOS... it's not the same thing! The width of the keys is different and at least in my sporadic use of colleagues' ThinkPads, it's been a major pain point.

ASUS: let me place the power button where the delete button should be placed!

Some PC laptop manufacturers insist on adding the damn numpad to the keyboard.

This makes the whole keyboard lopsided, rendering the rightmost quarter completely useless. Don't get why they would do that.

Let the 15 people in the world who _need_ the numpad for data entry use an external one.
