Introduction:

If you've ever had the pleasure of using a 'Sun' keyboard, you'll note that the Caps Lock and Control keys are swapped. If you use your keyboard a lot, you probably use the Ctrl key a lot, and probably don't use the Caps Lock very often, if ever (UNLESS YOU'RE INTO YELLING). So, why force the awkward pinky reach down to the Ctrl?
