The one key I have never used is the " Any " key.
You know.....Press any key to continue.
I can't seem to find the " Any " key on my keyboard.
I'll bet it was a DOS thing.

Prt Scr Sys Rq - I don't even know what it's supposed to do.
by Merfish on February 17th, 2008
Insert, pause/break and scroll lock.
Also the weird stuff on the side that I have no idea what they are for. There is a quarter moon, a plus sign, a world with a circle around it, an envelope, a magnifing glass and a circle with a question mark inside.
by slothmister on February 17th, 2008
The right cntr button, I always use the one on the left. Also the Ø, Å and Æ buttons as I very rarely have to type Norwegian.
by nightmare1320 on July 22nd, 2008

by ByteMeComputers on July 21st, 2008
It would have to be the 'any' key for me. Even though I have been asked to push it many times, I have yet to find it. So, it's defiantly the key I never use.
:o)
by Brian Kaplita on June 7th, 2008

by ByteMeComputers on June 7th, 2008
Scoll Lock for sure.
I used to not use print screen until I switched to Linux and now I use it somewhat often. It takes a snap shot of your screen.

by Eltinwe has a life Swan - DYOH on October 23rd, 2008
My keyboard has a number of side buttons which I never mapped to their proper functions and thus do nothing. There's a Home button (image of a house) which does nothing and a calculator button which does nothing. The actual keyboard keys I use absolutely all of them, though.
by Omid Farhang on October 23rd, 2008
"scroll lock" is what I use less than other, I use all my keys...
emmm, I love my keyboard more than mouse, it's very faster and need to less time to think and find what you want to click! think about find [OK] button on one window and click on it, but, using keyboard you will press Enter and you've submitted [OK]... ;)
by Penal Colony is wicked marrying Andy on October 23rd, 2008
I use all of them, except for the Scroll Lock key, because I have no idea what it does.

Functions keys 2 through 7 and 9 through 12, also the Sys Rq key (whatever that does), Scroll Lock, Pause/Break, Caps Lock, the key to the left of the Right Ctrl key (It looks like a box with a cursor)
