Insert THIS in Your Keyboard

The Insert key may not be the most worthless key on the board (That prize goes to Scroll Lock. I have worked with computers for 25 years and still have no idea what that one is for.) but it is awkwardly placed between the Delete and Backspace keys. Every time you try to fix a mistake you risk hitting the inadvertently-typing-over-stuff key.

Maybe we could replace it with one of the superfluous keys that keep appearing at the bottom of the keyboard. If any more junk is added there, the space bar will be demoted to a space key.

But enough whining. I pried off my Insert key with an old bent file drawer key. I challenge you to do the same. Join the Anti-Insert Key revolution!
