    Good one! You should invent the keyboard that has a capitalized CAPS LOCK key.

    That's a good question. It would be more intuitive had it been. You can design it and get a deisgn patent. Then when some one else does print it that way you can sue them for the infringing on your patent for lost profit. It's the American way!

    see how many responces you have that like the idea.

    I in no way use caps lock for that objective. i think of i attempt to stay away from the double click.. plus you ought to use shift for specific symbols like @ or (), so i dont see the element in utilising caps lock

    Trade secret: key names are never capitalized. It is just that way to match the other keys.

    then it would look different than all the other lettering, but that's a good question
