What counts as typical is lousy human factors and the song "You'll do it my way."
Every laptop that I have seen in the last decade has had the key set back;I even saw a keyboard with no touchpad but the keys still set back for the nonexistent touchpad. When I can get a large screen and an AT keyboard with a mini trackball on the right (they used to exist) then I'll consider a laptop. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

Sadly, it's hard to decide what counts as "typical". I use four laptops regularly, and all have the non-alphanumeric keys laid out significantly differently. -- Regards, Gord Tomlin Action Software International (a division of Mazda Computer Corporation) Tel: (905) 470-7113, Fax: (905) 470-6507 Support: https://secure-web.cisco.com/1YOpGw9WGPMT0H09Jhg7nmMmCHwUdyo5sRkqZzd-xrSeH6rCykN6S9H3emXSR03cBY1028cccPrk-arIQXca4gp-KYA_MBh9pHTz2zBaWYjbjklDa8sW2Kze16ER2Cilz0Qhj18HckC-xd_ligE05NoPTmf_kiRo_6BYgUgTF-5CcP8bEwO6vL7iEmlnlS0_UOaan149aDT4pFwy5Y_38AbaCpo0LnTpyJJu7k8KCKjrumjbFx-XFaBR03Dj15h4hfj9dWkEdp7pNfXVy6ABANQjtWP1pc12Y-IlXxb3HmmnmZfK5WviN49R6U532eXPL2PXAYSWsOTBMQxEIUrTTwfFgRx_oc2llnORTMW06LIUJkQ_OgOsHVIwvtzkC7h6Z8eSKICTfryxdjlAZ3kZ3qztQtE4I2Ca2muHfjzLzsOeVNcm2WCDlRCWtnW6bhGMs/https%3A%2F%2Factionsoftware.com%2Fsupport%2F ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
