Will there be more keyboard choices? I'd like a keyboard with dedicated Home, End, Insert, Delete, Page Up, and Page Down keys. The layout of the ThinkPad keyboards is especially nice here: The PageUp and PageDown keys are above the Left and Right arrow keys.

What I miss is a keyboard with dedicated keys for Home, End, Insert, Delete, PageUp, and PageDown. Sadly, this is still something only ThinkPads get right.

I really would like to give other laptops a chance but the substandard keyboards of most laptops are always holding me back.

I stick with Vim for the foreseeable future. It is stable and have all I need for my purposes, which is editing config files and shell scripts mostly.

For beginners I would recomment Vim as well because it is good enough for most use cases and is more stable.
