I use them with one hand, with a German or English keyboard this is easy.Well, I'm using a laptop with a German keyboard layout. You actually can access them, it just feels _very_ strange to me, because I never used it and you need to span you hand over the whole keyboard (which should be true for a standard keyboard aswell).
So if you have a laptop and have your mouse on the left side of the computer (which I do) you might have use of a standard keybord. (right hand users will might also have use for a standard keybord too.)
I'm fairly certain that the x/c/v keys differ depending on the locale though.Hmm, they're at the same spot on German and English keyboards after all :) David _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list Usability gnome org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
