So I was disappointed with my new laptop to see play button mapped to F5, and further confused by F7 being clear. Am I missing a point? Is F7 useful for something that I'm not aware of? This is stupid. I don't want to just flip the Fn lock because I do usually use the mute/volume controls, but F5 is definitely a more common use than that. --- LGM <cite>DpObliVion posted [p:891458761] in Why does m...
