I normally use an external USB keyboard for convenience. However, on the laptop keyboard, The keys on the far right, starting from the top are; Delete, Home, [PageUp, PageDown, End, and Right Arrow. There is even an Insert key third from the right side on the top row (the CapLock key is still more convenient). *Don Marang* Vinux Software Development Coordinator - vinuxproject.org <http://www.vinuxproject.org/> There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any real substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working on things that matter. -- Dean Kamen On 7/17/2011 8:31 AM, Stuart Deadman wrote: > Hi, Thanks for your reply.I have been reading on the internet that > Dell had removed the home and end keys from these models.
