I agree with you, Neal, I am much more comfortable with the space keys =
being on the bottom row.

It's much easier for me to press the space bar with my thumb if it is on
the bottom row.  I have tried pretending it was in the middle and it is
not nearly as easy.  It's certainly possible, it just doesn't feel
right.  As I use the space bar a lot more than I use the arrow keys, my
preference for it would be to have it on the bottom.

Hi,

While I could live with the keys as they are or could live with changing

them, I prefer how they are as it is more comfortable for me to press
the=20
spacebar with my thumb if it is on the bottom row.
