Your reply to "anecdata" is.... your personal anecdata? That's fascinating.

Anyway I am glad you personally don't mind changing long standardized keyboarding habits by using software modifications to make up for befuddling product decisions. I think that's wonderful, and I am thrilled that works for you and a handful of other people that have a background with ADM-3A terminals, though you should really remap the 'tab' key to 'escape' if you want to be truly proper.



Indeed. It shows how useless anecdata is for determining whether a product is useful to a broad section of people.

If you can't adapt to a new keyboard in a couple of weeks, you have other problems.


This isn't "oh they shifted where the arrow keys are" they removed an entire row from the keyboard. Sure you can adapt, but why bother when there are plenty of competitors.
