My work machine is an HP EliteBook 2560p. When it was given to me, I was shocked to see that a professional machine had no page-up / page-down keys. Instead one has to press FN+arrow up / FN+arrow down to get the page-up/down functionality. So.... what about when I have to press CTRL+PGUP (for instance, to switch worksheets in Excel)? I would have to press CTRL+FN+UP.... three keys!!!
That was too much for me. This madness had to stop.
The simplest solution was to remap other keys to pure PGUP/PGDOWN functionality to get around the poor design in this HP laptop.
So I used "KeyTweak" (http://webpages.charter.net/krumsick/) to remap the right Windows-meny key and the right CTRL key into PGUP and PGDOWN respectively. It works.
