Keyboards with extra buttons at the top

[Metal Man]

What do you think of them? Mine has a button that summons a calculator, Winamp, mutes/unmutes the sound, autoplays the CD rom drive, or acts as an easy browser navigation tool. Not to mention it can make the computer turn off.

[UserGoogol]

Mine has a volume knob, a play button, a next/previous track button, which is so damned useful. I have some other buttons, but I've never gone anywhere near them. (Except of course for the sleep button. That's damned useful.)

[mango]

Mine has an E-mail button, a button with three people on it and I have no idea what it does, a search button, a lightbulb button and a shopping cart button. I've never used any of them, and I've had this keyboard for years.

[Deepfake]

Mine has all sorts of buttons I would never use (aside from maybe the sleep button)

[Parrakarry]

Mine have got labels. In order:

My Documents, My Pictures, My Music, Mute, Play/Pause, Stop, Volume Up, Volume Down, Previous Track, Next Track, Media, Mail, Web/Home, Messenger, Calculator, Log Off, Sleep.

In addition, my keyboard's got an "F Lock" key, and where the F keys would be are dual keys. When F-lock is activated, they're the normal F1-F12, but when F lock's off, they're (in order):

Help, Undo, Redo, New, Open, Close, Reply, Forward, Send, Spell, Save, Print.

This keyboard roxxorz.

[Link2000]

Although I very rarely use any of them:

E-mail, messenger, webcam, search, shopping, favorites, My Home. new, reply, forward, send, undo, redo, print, save, My Comp, My Doc, My Pic, My Music, a scroll wheel, and a go button.

Oh, and your standard music controls.

[MarioFreak]

I don't have any extra buttons. I don't mind though... I have alot of things set up to run with a couple keystrokes. Like for example.. I can go to the next track of music in Winamp by pressing CTRL+ALT+PAGEUP, or open Windows explorer by pressing CTRL-ALT-E.

[mushroom]

I have 'em, but I don't know how to program 'em.

[Kukurio]

The only one I ever use is the calculator key. Much faster than going into Accessories.


"Subrosiani vincent omnia!" (Subrosians shall conquer all!)

[c_jks]

I have the alphabet in a wierd set up, a few numbers, a keypad on the side, a tab button, caps lock, shift, this thingie: ~, and these symbols, in order: !@#$%^&*()

Oh, oh! And get this: Arrow buttons!

I've got a lot better buttons than you guys.

QWERTY

[Princess Zelda of Hyrule]

Back, Forward, Stop, Mail, Search, Favorites, Web/Home, My Computer, Calculator, Sleep

They don't work, though.

[Vinny]

Mute, volume down, volume up, play/pause, stop, Windows Media Player, back, forward, some weird thing that shows a heart inside a folder and I have no clue what it does, Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, and Search.

Quote of the week:
"I went to a fight the other night and a hockey game broke out."- Rodney Dangerfield.

Pointless fact of the week:
The word “trivia” comes from the Latin "tri-" + "via", which means three streets. This is because in ancient times, at an intersection of three streets in Rome, they would have a type of kiosk where ancillary information was listed. You might be interested in it, you might not, so they were bits of “trivia."

[LOOT]

E-Mail, Messange, Webcam, Mute, Volume, Media, My Home, Search, F Lock (Prevents the F keys to be used, like F5) and User. Only ones that work are the the F Lock and User keys, and the User key makes the computer hibernate.
