It seems that the single one slightly interesting thing on this little website is this post about "Rearranging my Keyboard". At least if you're going to believe all those people Google directs at it.
Recently I stumbled over Eric Anholt saying:
I got a lovely little eee 901 for work. It mostly seems like a useful machine, except for the position of the right shift key which is a disaster. (Placing my fingers on the home row, I've hovering over the up-arrow instead of shift. Hilarity ensues when trying to type '~' in the terminal or working on spreadsheets in any way).
I can feel your pain, Eric. The same thing happened to me with a Sony Vaio. Which is a nice little machine and all, but was I ever grateful when I finally got an USB keyboard to accompany it. Finally a shift key placed the way it's ought to be.
It's already hard enough for me to adjust to a keyboard that's not quite wired the way my fingers are wired to my brain. Like when I switch back and forth between German and US keyboard layouts, which aren't really, all that different.
At my current job I'm programming in APL, a language which comes with it's own keyboard layouts, with all kinds of odd symbols wired to Ctrl-somekey combinations. It always takes me some time to adjust to normal keyboards again.
It's kind of like rewiring your fingers really.
