They've removed the escape key and replaced it with a gee-whiz colorized
touchscreen.  Part of (near where "F1" used to be) is sometimes used to
generate an escape keypress, but it's context-sensitive.

I use the remainder of the F-keys in Vim for tab management and running
build/diff scripts.  They've all been removed unless I want to hold down a
"fn" key.

So now I carry a ThinkPad, grit my teeth, and deal with Windows for
whatever won't run on FreeBSD.
