>_< Good point, can I take my vote back?

[Smaug]

menu key=windows key? If so then I like it. Just hold it and e and my computer pops up. All kinds of hotkeys.

[eXoSloth]

on my board sysrq is the same as printscrn which you can use to take screens shots

[Indecisive]

THE FUX0RING WINDOWS KEY! it gets in my way and crashs games!

[Smaug]

hahaha I used to know someone when I played starcraft that took his windows key off his keyboard cuz he kept hitting it ingame.

[Hamma]

Scroll lock is the most useless. It does nothing anymore really

[Onizuka]

no its the ghey windows start keys.....may those things burn in hell.

[Squeeky]

Believe it or not people use Windows key alot

Windows+L for login

Windows+R for run etc...

[Strygun]

death to the windows key.

[diluted]

on some keyboards its on the right side next to ctrl. has a mouse pointing at a thingy. yeah. also the windows key does get in the away a lot even though not 'worthless'.

[Revenant]

I use the windows key when I'm turning off my comp.

It's just windows key>up arrow>enter>right arrow>enter

We need the "Fuck It" key. When we get sick of some stupid program just push that baby and bam!.. the progy is bitch slapped. :D

[Mtx]

Yeah but even with CAD you have to select the program to be terminated and that takes to long when you have multiple windows open. Not only that but sometimes when you have a lot of explorer windows open explorer itself will crash from CAD. Thus closing all those beautiful porn boxes and leaving me with nothing more than photoshop on my desktop.

Fuck you Gates.. you and your domino effected explorer! :mad:

Basically Ctrl+Alt+Delete in one key :p

[EineBeBoP]

I like the windows key. it is used often. and on purpose too!

[Squeeky]

I actually run task manager in my system tray :)

[BUGGER�GHO�T]

i dunno, i think jsut the number pad on the side of the keyboard is useless, i mean when iw want numbers, i got em right over the letters and i dont feel like moving my right hand across the board. other than that, scroll lock.

Scroll Lock is useful for us (few) people who use Excel regularly.

Back in the old days of yore, what WAS the scroll lock key used for?

[Sp3ctre]

I've never, EVER used the key to the left of 1. It does this: `
and (ohmygod!) it does... THIS: �

Completely useless. So is Caps Lock, Num Lock and Scroll Lock

[simba]

menu key, no need 4 it and ruins games whne u touch it by mistake. Remember when I used 2 play Duke Nukem3d with a friend, when I pressed the button the whole game would exit.

And sp3ctre the key left to 1 scrolls down the console in some games, at swedish keyboards anyway.

that key is not useless. its brings up the consol in many games.

[TheAngelOfWar]

hehe, scroll lock is so useful for cheating in d2. now that stupid key next to the windows key, THAT is useless. hmm, or caps lock though. That is perhaps the most annoying key there is. not useless, but annoying points carry over.

[Mtx]

I have this button that says "FN" beside my windows key on the left. What does that do?

[Zodiac]

i said other because i have this little key that has a drawing of a calculator or a menu bar or something like that on it. i like that drawing, even though i still dont know really how to use that key :D

[Smaug]

It locks your scroll duh! ... nah I dunno wtf it does...

[GonePostal]

engage your scroll lock key to the "on" position. the lil green light should now be displayed under the text 'scroll lock"


now press the up and down arrow keys and watch it scroll!


thats what it USED to do now it does nothing


back in the days of single use pc

[Rant on]THIS IS NOW A DEATH TO BILL GATES hate thread.

All that Hate that fat rat bastard say so, or you'll get a windows worm. I was just fine with DOS. I could even reprogram it to what I wanted. But now there is no DOS. Fuk you Bill Gates. Fuk you in the @ss with a hockey stick. Fuk you till your nuts fall off.
[/rant off]

*coughs* Ahem.

That window's key pisses me off. I always hit it, and it shoots me out of my game, back to windows. But I do use it. *windows key, U, U.* Fast turn off.
I don't mind other keys. For in Unreal 2003 I use as many keys as I can for my Taunts. And I have many Taunts. Eric Cartman and South park are my Favs. So I need those extra keys.
