Thanks for your feedback. Its my first review, I just wanted an outside view.

Apart from what your have pointed out, what do you think?

Very comprehensive (says a fellow HHKP2Pro owner).

There is allegedly a Caps Lock - Fn + Tab is labelled as "Caps", and rumour has it that this is the case, but mine has never worked, simply returning a tab.

Although I am using it on a Mac, don't know if this makes any difference.

I have relatively large, strong hands, and although I rarely accidentally press a key, I do find that I can rattle off a quick sentence or two much more easily with the Topre switches.

Thanks for the positive feedback.

I can access the Caps lock key by using Fn and Tab. I use the dip switches, 2 and 6 in the Windows environment.

I dont find the Topre switches on the HHKB light and I do tend to type heavy handed, I do make more mistakes on this board than my others.
