    Hey guys

    Always used Toshiba laptops before, but I'm considering this Lenovo since the specs are good for the price (and I can't find a similarly priced Toshiba with a 6200U.

    However, I'm not sure what to think about the keyboard layout

    First off, it's ANSI layout, and I've always had ISO layout (big enter key) but I'm not sure if these are stock images and the UK version will come with an ISO layout. However even if it does come with the ISO layout, the up arrow is still below the enter key instead of shift. I feel like this might make it difficult to use after using keyboards with the below layout so long

    Will I adjust to it? Even if the arrow keys aren't a problem, how about ISO -> ANSI? I'm buying online so I can't test it before purchase.

    Thanks
