It also got to Steve Ballmer who said that if he could find the guy
that invented the F-Lock (or at least made it necessary to use it to

I guess there is probably somewhere that you can set Windows to start
with the F-Lock on, but I haven't taken the time to look.

All of a sudden in Word 2007 some of the shortcut keys don't work,
like Shift
F7. Anyone know why? P.S. I have a wireless keyboard if that makes
