Is Caps Lock Dead?
An interesting question that comes from an anonymous posters on Slashdot:
"Recently I have noticed that I haven't used caps lock other for any purpose other than hitting it by accident. Once upon a time, COBOL was written in all caps, and other languages like BASIC and Fortran were not case sensitive. Capitals were the way to go for writing code. Does the caps lock key serve any purpose any more, and if not, should it be removed, moved, or replaced?"
Wha do you think? Are you using often the Caps Lock Key? Personally, I use the Caps Lock Key only when writing some SQL code in stored procedures and at least in some special cases when I'm writing text with Word Processors.
And you?
