New Mac Keyboard Isn't Fond of Caps Lock
October 7, 2007 by Lauren
You may love the newer, thinner Mac keyboard, but it doesn't wholeheartedly love you back. The wired version of the keyboard is apparently biased against the caps lock function and will exhaust all of its sneakiest efforts to prevent you from using the key.
You typical, instinctive 'tap' on the key won't activate it. No, instead, you must mash the key down and hold it until caps lock is turned on. But then, the slightest tap [which wouldn't do the trick for the life of you a moment ago] will instantly turn off your caps lock.
A minor technicality, but annoying and odd nonetheless. Here's to hoping Apple looks into this and fixes it, because for the mean time, the caps lock key is all but decorative.
