Right out of the box, this keyboard is designed to be intuitive and efficient for coding. The Function key can easily be accessed by the right pinky, and the Control key has been moved from the corner to replace the Caps Lock key. In theory, it’s difficult to reach your pinky down to the corner while keeping your hand on the home row. The keyboard only operates at a 125-Hz polling rate, which is functional, but falls far behind much lower-priced gaming-oriented keyboards. These modifications can let you really fine-tune your HHKB to your personal tastes, but they all have the same downside: Taking apart a Topre keyboard is not easy.
