there should be a way to turn this off that you can use the function keys the way they were ment to be used. I have a lenovothinkpad and when i do a key combo i can turn off the fn key so i can use the function keys correctly and yes the lenovo thinkpad i have is a full sized keyboard as well.

I have a newer Toshiba S75 that I got from Costco.  I picked it out largely 
based on the keyboard.  I wanted a separate number pad and so many of the 
keyboards I felt in various stores had all the keys squished together so that I 
couldn't quickly distinguish the arrow keys and function keys.  I know I could 
have used an external keyboard, but having have this defeats the purpose for me 
of the laptop.  The only annoyance I have with the Toshiba, and I heard this is 
not unique to this brand is that the Function keys do what there were designed 
to do straight away, meaning pressing say F3 and F4 changges screen brightness. 
 So, in order to use a function key with Window Eyes or do do things like 
switch window panes or close a program, you have to hit the FN key and the 
function key.  I really dislike this, but haven't found a setting to completely 
turn it off and back to how it used to work in prior laptops.  My HP laptop at 
work still functions the way I would expect with function keys.

The reason Mayberry was so peaceful and quiet was because nobody was married. 
Andy, Aunt Bea, Barney, Floyd, Howard, Goober, Gomer, Sam, Earnest T Bass, 
Helen, Thelma Lou, Clara, and of course Opie, all single.
The only married person was Otis, and he stayed drunk.
