1433455 2017-03-27 18:50:00 I was gonna post on the help forum for help with a problem on my laptop keyboard, which has been going on for ages. Whenever I press the T key it takes me to a new browser window. It was only yesterday I realised that with my typing style the T is the furthest right key I use with my left hand and the edge of my palm touches the CTRL key simultaneously! Doh! Greg (193)
1433456 2017-03-27 22:38:00 Not a QWERTY kb then?. Lurking (218)
1433457 2017-03-28 16:16:00 It's QWERTY going by his touch typing positioning but how are you edging the CTRL key? small hands/fingers, all fingers leave home position, just cause of the laptop keyboard being compact and key press requires little effort?

Need more information to understand why its happening to you.

1433458 2017-03-29 00:36:00 Already explained... edge of the palm of my hand touches the CTRL key when I press the T key. This on a regular full size laptop keyboard.

Anyway, problem is resolved.

1433459 2017-03-29 00:50:00 I bump the caps lock instead of or as well as the A key so often I've been known to remove it from my keyboard in anger.
Particularly frustrating as I am not looking at the screen when I type. I think a redesign of where some keys live is in order.
