and also the terrible chiclet keyboard :(

I mostly love my T560, but really miss the good old keyboard. Also, who decided that it would be good idea to ship "professional" device like this with F-keys set to what should have been an Fn-called functions (volume and brightness control, etc...)



The Fn thing is an easy fix with Fn-Esc, which swaps them back to ordinary function keys.


I have the same complaint about Windows. Professional editions should come with more professional defaults.


Can't you just change that in BIOS? I know I did on my lenovo.


you can, but it's a weird default nonetheless (plus the keyboard looks ugly with large "action" icons and small Fx labels underneath)


I guess that's more of a Windows problem. In my day-to-day use under Arch, I almost never use the function keys. I do, however, have the multimedia keys configured to do the appropriate things with my sound, screen brightness, wifi, etc.
