When seeing the spec, I was stunt and really this is what I wanted for to help me on doing my studies in KLMU. Huhu ^_^ But, theres slinghly a lil bit problems on its keyboard. When I bought it and test the keyboard, you will have to press Fn + ALT + F4 to shut down and it is additional "Fn" to press. Well, I don't know about you guys about it as for me it irritate a lot because I'm handling with Adobe Flash and lots of the shortcut is on the Action Keys. Well, while looking through at the BIOS. My problem solve and there is a way to change it. I'm really happy about it.. here I'm going to share with you on how to handle on such problems.
1. On the Startup, press ESC
>a Startup Menu will appear on your screen and the selection will be something like this;
F1 System Information
F2 System Diagnostics
F9 Boot Device Options
F10 Bios Setup
F11 System Recovery
ENTER - Continue Startup
2. On the Startup Menu, choose F10
>BIOS will appear
3. Select System Configuration
4. Choose Action Keys Mode
>you will found out that the Mode is ENABLED, you only have to disable it then thats it. As easy as that. Huhu~~ ^_^
