re: backlit keyboard

Once you live with it, you can't live without it. I've become so spoiled in my years....

Do macs not have the little bumps on the f and j keys? If so, what do you need to see the keys for?
You'd think that wouldn't you, but clearly that isn't how it works. Something about making my index fingers hit those key requires a lighted keyboard now.

Again, I'm aware I'm being soft here.

I'm always having to stop and check that I'm pressing the right function key (volume control, play/pause), particularly if I'm watching a movie in the dark
I had this opinion, too, until I got a keyboard that was backlit.
