*patpat* It DOES give you an excuse to upgrade, though. XD
If you learned to type on typewriters, the Shift key worked the same way as the Caps Lock key did, except the Shift key turned off automatically (IIRC)? Not having to hit Caps Lock again is helpful IMHO, which is why I use Shift. At least, that's how I remember it going. XD It took a while to train into it, but after that, it was second nature. I don't even know I'm doing it anymore until I think about it.
I'm trying to recall the impetus for switching to the Shift key. I think I read an article somewhere about how you could tell typists by their use of the Shift key, and the article was VERY MUCH on the side of Shift users as opposed to Caps Lock users--the article claimed that people who used Caps Lock were just less flexible than people who used both. O_o
Me, I typo so much that hitting Tab (above Caps Lock) was a constant problem. So Shift helped a LOT.
