Absolutely the WORST position for the Control key for emacs users since
we live and die with our little finger on the control key. My IBM
keyboard at work is set up this way, however, it allows remapping of
keys so my Caps Lock and Control keys are flipped. Is this possible
with this keyboard? If not, I would never buy or receive it as a gift.
