    Okay not sure if anyone else has used it but I cannot get my function and control key to switch. I click add and type key it can find the control key by clicking it but my function key it cant find no matter if i touch it or hold it. Was wondering if anyone has done it and if anyone can help me.

    If you are trying to do it through windows just give up. I think Animaleyes posted a firmware version that had a swapped fn and ctrl, if you wanna try and track that down.

    Couldn't agree more , only the directional keys needs a revision when it comes to MSI keyboards

    Agreed, size them up, and reposition and you've got yourself an even better layout, i love the locations of back and forward slash keys, i log into exchange servers alot with domain before user, and i need to use the \ key all the time. :)

    Right, completely opaque holes! There, AND DONT SAY IM BEING RACIST TO WATER, because we all know im not ;).

    Yeah 1722 keyboard ftw! Love the forward slash key, you can type in directories so much faster. ctrl can be a little annoying at first while crouching, but like everyone is saying, you adjust.

    @ cat: So you are saying that without confusion the universe would be made up of completely opaque holes? You've lost it my friend...

    Hey, who knows, if you step into it, we may have a checkerbox effect ;).

    The worlds made to be lost, just imagine your in the middle of the desert, then what would we do?

    Yeah fair enough mate. There is no doubt here that it is different and so takes getting used to, but none of us condemn the laptop for it, or some may, but you get the picture ;)
