 with you, man. Everyone makes those kind of typos (I know I do). It just seemed ironic given the topic of that post was spelling!

Well, I use so many keyboards with different locations for the keys...
Even with Windows 'standard' keyboards, some are less in width than others. The one I have at home the left arrow key is in a corner made by the enter key and the ctrl key. The keyboard i use at work, there is more distance between the ctrl key and the left arrow key.
Not as bad as what I dealt with about 1991. I had two part time jobs. One had MS-DOS, Tandy 1000 SX computers, and the other had Ampex and another brand of main frame type terminals. The university, they had the Tandy 1000s, bought keyboards by the case... what ever was cheapest. So I deal with 6 different keyboard layouts over a week's time. Function keys, arrow keys, home row keys ( dot on the G key, on another one had underscore on the K key, asterisk on the J key. All to let the user know where the home row was located.) And I had an AMiga A1000 computer, only 10 function keys. So, I'm surprised my typing doesn't have more errors.
As for misspelled words, an old Usenet ( newsgroup) saying is that no discussion about spelling will have perfect spelling for every post.
