I could get used to it just for control, but pressing ctrl-shift without fn is very awkward, especially since it’s a shortcut I have to use a lot. And then there’s the fact that I unlearn it everyday with my keyboard at home.
Oh I didn’t know that. But yeah I don’t have BIOS access, even if it was a registry key I couldn’t do it. It’s fine though, for now I always plug in another mouse/keyboard/monitor and forget that laptop exists.
They’re reliable, good quality, have amazing keyboards, and work well with Linux (some even support Libreboot).
Years after using one for work, I still cannot get used to having Ctrl not being the leftmost key.
I personally prefer it the Thinkpad keyboard

There’s a setting in the BIOS to switch these over. You may be able to jump in and do it yourself if the work laptop isn’t too locked down
