Yes, the shift keys don't click as noticeably as the others but even they have the same overall responsive feel. I hadn't even noticed the slight difference in sound from the shift keys until I started checking to see if there were any differences. I wonder if they used MX red on the shift keys and blue everywhere else.

Yes, there are software programs such as 'keytweak' that allow you to re-map your keys. I frequently re-map home/end & page up/down so that home and end can be pressed without using the FN key

Exactly what Jack said. I will say I haven't used the programmable keys for anything besides games, but can attest that they work great.

Yes, they are on the F keys. You'll have to use the FN + the appropriate F key to use them.

Franklin....So sorry about my former answer, it is wrong. There are indeed number keys along the top. Just no key with "number lock" on it like full size keyboards. I got the info from my son who owns the computer and I got his comments on it wrong. Sorry, hope you see this clarification...

Yes it is for each key. I haven't had any issues typing with them, except for the space bar which was a tiny bit bigger than my key, but that went away after a while. I get tons of compliments about my keyboard all the time, and honestly it really didn't take more than a few minutes to put all the stickers on. I'd recommend it.

It has all of those EXCEPT an Applications Key. You can use Shift+F10 when in Windows-8 Desktop mode, which is easy to do.

Not at all. Your number keys on your laptop stay fully functional. I love mine.

In my experience (several months), there has been no compromise whatsoever in normal keyboard function. I can use any and all key sequences and combinations I have used on any system with a standard wired or wireless keyboard connection.

No. it is built into the keyset. There may be an opposite layout for a keyset out there, but as of yet I have not seen one.

No, I can't type all the characters with both shift keys pressed down. For example 'T' doesn't work.

No, the picture is correct. The return key and the \| key are together. This has never affected my use.

Yes, you would hit all three keys. It's not difficult. This may not be the best keyboard if you plan to use F keys a lot or a number pad. It is ideal, however, if you plan to write on it. It's still my favorite keyboard after many years of extensive use. You can also reassign the function and control keys easily.

no you can count your key's not the F key's. Top row is 1-10 so if it say's key 3 you just countin 3 key's and you got it

Yes. That top line is as follows. The Esc key is on the left end, by itself. Then, moving to the right you have a space the size of a key, then F1 F2 F3 F4; small space, F5 F6 F7 F8; small space, F9 F10 F11 F12; small space Print Screen, Scroll Lock, Pause.

Yes. All keyboards featuring Cherry MX keys are designed that way, as far as I know.
