I bought a $5 keyboard that was not bad, but the layout had "sleep",
"wake", "power" keys between the Del/End/PgDn row and the arrow keys.
In Linux, of course, the keys didn't actually do anything, but
physically they still annoyed me because there should not be keys
there! So I remove them with a screwdriver. :)

I can't imagine using it if those keys actually shutdown the machine.
Such a horrible placement.
