death to caps lock

About a year ago, I saw Bill Gates excitedly showing off an early version of Windows Vista. What one feature did he demonstrate? Photo-stitching. You know photo-stitching software. It's the stuff we've gotten for free with our digital cameras for about six years.

"If Microsoft really listened to what customers want," I recently held forth, "They'd give 'em a way of turning off that gODDAMNED cAPS lOCK kEY."

Hmmm. A little research later...

Microsoft didn't, but this guy did. I ran disable_caps_lock.reg, rebooted, and caps lock is no more.
