Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? Yeah, Dell laptops specially have small keyboards if you buy one of their convertibles. But they also have a toggle to switch to media keys or function keys with FN + escape shortcut. But on my laptop, there are no page up or down keys either, so for that, I

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? Acer Predator gaming laptop. I own it, I love it, I recommend it highly. It was only 1200 dollars on amazon. When I have a moment, I will link you to it. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/550214/#p550214 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? @jack, the one I purchased is this year's model, the 9500. To my knowledge, it does not follow the same scheme as previous models with the function and arrow keys for navigation. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/550204/#p550204 -- Audiogames

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? @leibylucw and @Vazbol: The xps15 7590 will allow you to use the function+left and right arrows for home and end, and the function+escape is a permanent toggle as well, so no bios configuration needed. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post/550127/#p550127

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? I initially got a Dell XPS 13 2-in-1, but switched to this year's XPS 15 model with maxed-out specs. These are pretty great laptops, and you don't need to spend any more than what your budget affords you to get something worth-while.I noticed on the XPS 13 2

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? @TheBlindSaiyanGood luck with that policy then, because that excludes laptops from almost every major manufacturer in the last 5 years, including several product lines from Dell.Does it suck? Sure. Is it hard to fix with a Google search and some sighted help

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? Buh, it seems that I probably should learn to get used to smaller keyboard configurations considering the trend of most non-gaming laptops to be sleek and slim. All the keys are at least there, evading some weird options to replace certain commands with laptop

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? Hi.As someone who has used many different laptops, I would stay away from Lenovo.The main reason being is that out of the box there function keys are changed, so you even have to press 3 keys just to close a program with the regular alt F4 command that's

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? Hello and thanks for the suggestions.    I'm going to be field testing a T series Think Pad for a bit before finalizing a purchase. I most likely will back away from the X1 for now, as mainly I just want a new laptop to go into work with and don't really need

Re: Recommended 2020 Laptops? I highly recommend either the T series ThinkPads from Lenovo. The reversed control and function keys can be changed in the bios. If you're willing to spend a bit more, I cannot recommend the X1 Carbon highly enough.You may want to wait a few months though
