I rather not remap, but that's not the issue.  For one thing, I can  
never get the keymapping to work quite right in Windows.  Remapping in  
Windows is a fairly high level function, so you end up with some  
software honoring it, and some not.

It's really the shape of the capslock key that bothers me.  It's not  
shaped like a normal key on the Model M, and it really bothers me.

It's a deformed key, with a small block set on a larger one, with a  
large gap between the Capslock and the A key, and I hate it.
