Yeah, I do try to picture the placement. I have one of those ergonometric
MS keyboards. I remember at first, it took a bit of getting used to, now, I
find the conventional keyboard awkward but I must admit, I seem to recall F
key placement seemed better or more intuitive on those "old fashioned
keyboards," maybe I was doing it by feel!<LOL> I guess my ergonometric
keyboard doesn't "FEEL" right!

In the summer time, there's not much light in this room as I keep them
turned off to keep it cooler, don't have to use the air conditioning as much
that way:-) but combine the low light, even with the blinds set to a
pleasing opening and a small fluorescent desk lamp and my middle aged
"peepers" and you have a recipe for hunt and peck when unsure of the key and
I'm a fast touch typist, a skill developed when I was in college grinding
out term papers....those keyboards didn't have F Keys and the typewriters
were still manual!<LOL> Well, I did have a portable electric; but no top
row of F keys.:-)
