You're definitely not alone, but on the other hand we may both be insane ;-)

I've often cursed the CapsLock key (at least they don't try to pass it off as a shift lock when all it does is capitals). Frankly I think about 999 out of every 1000 times I (or nearly anyone) hits it it is unintentional (unless of course you re-define it as the Ctrl key as it should be), and I can't recall the last time I actually wanted to type so many sequential capital letters that CapsLock would have actually been useful. Geez, even on my PalmOS device I can toggle the case of already-typed text.

To go just a bit further, why do we have numbers above the keyboard anyway? Perhaps on crowded notebooks it makes sense, but every desktop keyboard I've seen for years had this really handy numeric keypad on the right (to the annoyance of some lefty friends of mine...). I bet more than 50% of my typing errors would vanish if I didn't have to hit shift for punctuation.
