Anyone have one of those retarded sleep buttons on their
keyboard?

I'm always hitting that thing by accident. Its so fucking
annoying! I have to get a new keyboard.

What where they thinking? (compaq)

im pretty sure there's somewhere in your power settings in
windows where you can change the behavior of the sleep
button, which probably includes disabling it completely.

i had the same problem, but to be honest, i was to lazy to
figure it out. fortunately the sleep button on my keyboard,
along with the rest of those silly 'function' keys (web,
mail, etc.), was rubber so i just removed the button
completely, solving the problem in the most rudimentary
manner possible.

sorted out yet because i hate it so much i don't wish to
dedicate any time to it at all because i hate it..

dedicate any further time to this function .

I disabled mine completely, but not through software. I
popped the fucker off with a knife and have never looked
back. (not recommended for those with obsessive-compulsive
disorder)
