Nominations for Most Useless Key on keyboard...



After having struck the "Insert" key by mistake for the 5th time within
20 minutes, and uncountable times in the last 10 years, I once more (and
a bit more loudly than usual) wonder what the @&*? this key is good
for!!!

OK sure, so at the command prompt the INSERT mode is default OFF, and you
need this key to get a sensible (non-overwriting) editor mode. But
still...

Other nominees for "Most Useless Key" include:
- Scroll Lock (at least it isn't in the way)
- Pause/Break
- Home/End
- Num Lock

Would it be possible to buy keyboards that replace theys keys with
something *useful*?
