I have been a Mac guy since 2008, I wanted to get off the apple train and get a Lenovo as I loved Lenovo... only to find myself sitting here with another mac.
Replacing F1 keys with a touch bar? Really? Losing the Caps lock? No clue what they were thinking.
Not being snarky, just curious.
any time i need to type more than 3 capital letters in a row, i hit caps lock. i type at 140+ wpm so holding down shift while typing reduces my speed by a significant amount. it's easier to hit caps lock and then hit it again when i'm done. it doesn't take any time.
examples of needing caps lock:
$LONG_VARIABLE_OR_CONST_NAMES
LABELS IN DIAGRAMS AND CODE:
3. CERTAIN FORMS LIKE PURCHASE ORDERS AND INVOICES ARE TRADITIONALLY IN ALL CAPS (QTY 2)
IMPORTANT NOTES IN MEMOS!!! to myself and others
i use it at least a half dozen times a day.
At the beginning I thought that these islandish keyboards aren't that bad, but after a year I'm sure they are total crap, which shouldn't be put in stuff that costs $1500+.
Previously I owned R61 (NF55WPB), which was surely lower-end laptop and I didn't have any problems with keyboard for 3 years that I spent using it (until NVS140m exhibited its factory problem and I have no longer seen anything on the screen).
