    That keyboard is a monstrosity.

    I can see Ctrl and Alt, but I can't see Del, only backspace.

    No Page Up, Page Down, Home or End. Which are some of the most frequent keys I use, especially with Ctrl too :(

    You can actually read the keys?

    Yeah, that thing's pretty ugly...I can't imagine having to relearn typing, either, since I've been typing since I was like...6. I'm clocked at 114 wpm when copying text. Do you think that keyboard could really make me any faster?
