The lovely Mrs fob bought me a Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse for Christmas and I'm chuffed to bits with the freedom from wires.
But, and there's always a but, because they are battery operated, to econmise on current consumption there are no Caps Lock or Num Lock indicators on the Keyboard.
Not a problem with the Num Lock and for most of the time not a major problem with the Caps Lock but when entering a case-sensitive password all you get are asterisks. So unless you try a keypress in another field (UserName, for instance) there's a 50/50 chance of getting it wrong. This is boring.
Anyone know of an on-screen indicator of Caps Lock status?
