Whatever you get, make sure it has dedicated Home and End keys on the keyboard. Nothing is more frustrating than having to press two or three keys simultaneously over and over again to accomplish a common task. I use Home and End constantly and miss dedicated keys for the task. What keys you would miss might be different. I learned the hard way that the keyboard layout should be a major decision of any laptop purchase. Inefficient layouts will drop productivity. -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President I've got great, time saving software that you might find useful. <a href="http://cubiclesoft.com/">http://cubiclesoft.com/</a> _______________________________________________ linux-user mailing list <a href="mailto:linux-user@egr.msu.edu">linux-user@egr.msu.edu</a> <a href="http://mailman.egr.msu.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-user">http://mailman.egr.msu.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-user</a> </div></blockquote></body></html>
