Axioo, Where is the Pipe key?

March 21, 2009 · Posted in Computer Technology · 1 Comment 

Carrefour is having 10% store wide discount when you charge to your POSB Everyday Credit Card. (5% direct discount plus 5% POSB cash rebates).

I am very tempted to buy the Axio Pico DJJ616 netbook at S$449 (after 10% discount). So, during the lunch time, I was at the display counter to look-see look-see and touch-touch the Axio Pico netbook, then realized that the keyboard layout is quite different.

Where is the Pipe key?

The pipe key is a commonly used key to to link the output of several commands together.

Normally, the Pipe key is located upper-right side. But in this keyboard, Axioo shifted the Pipe key to lower-left. Very unfriendly to Linux users.
