This is the 6th new keyboard so far this year. Why is it the O,R,P and N keys seem to break all the time?

On a similar note, but rather less taking the mick, I seem to have developed a habit of accidentally typing ; instead of '
I just can't get out of the habit. It's very strange, and I have to make a concerted effort to go back and change the ; to a ' or slow right down and look at what keys my fingers are hitting.
So, did those keys get swapped over or something? I never used to do it years ago.0 -
yeehaamcgee funny you should say that actually, because over the last couple of weeks, I've noticed myself typing / instead of . a fair bit.
Seems like we've both moved 1 key to the left.
I'll try moving my keyboard a cm or 2 to the right to compensate......

BUT!!!!! I think you're hit the nail on the head! on ALL my keyboards, ; is to the LEFT or ' and / is to the RIGHT of .
so on mine, you would have moved one key to the right, and I've moved one to the left.
Are there really slightly different keyboard layouts? I mean, so slight as to just be annoying?

Might change if you have the numberpad on the right hand side0

Never mind, it seems I was having trouble distinguishing my left from my right. My keyboard is set up same as yours, so I've moved 1 to the RIGHT :roll:0 -

Every time i type my name i put TOm instead of Tom, seems my little finger doesn't want to let go of the shift key, and make me shout most my name.0

Anyone else often wondered how you log onto a pc at work, you know ctrl-alt-delete, if you only have one hand?
No.......?
Just me then?0 -

Have you not noticed there's a CTRL, ALT(GR) and DEL key, all within easy reach of each other on the right hand side before?0 -
You know, I've never actually noticed that before.
