For umpteen years I've used the Control button in the lower left corner. Every keyboard I've known has had it there.
Now I have a laptop where the "Fn" button is there... drives me nuts! I keep hitting Fn when I mean to hit Control.
... and there'll be no getting used to it as my other 2 well-used computers have CONTROL in the lower left.
What's up with this?
... just venting a bit.
Why oh why would a big manufacturer do something as crazy as relocating a key whose location has pretty much become an industry standard?
Isn't that like putting the brake pedal on the right in a vehicle?
