Apparently we look like this now
I voted Yes.

Its always in the way, and you usually don't notice that you've hit it until you're done typing whatever you are typing. Its very annoying!

Don't make me use my bare hands on you.
Between the Tab and the Shift key is a pain in the butt, but if it wasn't there and it was over by the Home, End, Page Up, etc. keys - everyone would complain that it was inconvenient.

And we owe this all to the ancient type writers anyhow. We are all so adapted to the qwerty, that I doubt it will ever change.

You ought to have a go at a Spanish keyboard. Man, all the little extra letters and symbols and stuff moved around - I was almost reduced to hunt-and-peck when I was over there.

Not sure I've ever intentionally used the caps lock key, even for a heading little finger on the left hand holds down the shift key

I think we should have the option to disable the Caps Lock key. I too often hit it by mistake when going for the A.

And I always use the shift key when typing in caps(which is not very often).

I once considered pulling out that button, since I hit accidently so often. Then I figured it was just me, going way to far to the left for "A". :lol:
