wow... just think, if I had not checked engadget one last time before getting some sleep, I might have missed this development.
There but for the grace of God...
I have a feeling this photo was taken at the apple store and the Macbook air next to it has two F11 keys now....
truth above me, this is just the f10 key from another air put in place of the volume down button (volume down has a small sound wave coming from it). My guess it it was someone doing it as say a joke not an apple manufactory mistake. However I did enjoy the pun and all the bitching was pretty enjoyable too
I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. This is the kind of news I live for.
...
But srsly.
It's a blog. Lower your expectations down to "Dismal."
many a day have i stumbled upon two f10 keys, rarely when i'm sober . . so this is a very exciting moment for me
Step 1: Switch out F keys
Step 2: Claim it is a rare manufacturing error, post on eBay
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit!
I think this was posted simply cause it rather amusing especially with the caption underneath.
Remember this is a blog! not a news site, people need to lighten up!
Clearly Apple has reinvented the keyboard. The lack of a lower volume button will bring back a sense of teen-like wonder as everyone with everyone listening to music as loud as mechanically possible. I for one, congratulate the engineers at Cupertino for this revolution in sound level technology.
Bah! Manufacturing error....
*goes back to sleep*
Some posts are made simply for the hilarity of the comments. If you can't see that, we all prefer you sleeping.
In other news, Bill Brasky killed Wolfgang Hunt with a trident.
OH MY GOD! APPLE ISN'T PERFECT! Call the presses! Gather the masses! Send out the cavalry!
u sir r lame,
thats like getting 2 thumbs on the same hand
Way to be defensive :D
Gum is perfection.
WITHOUT F11 I DONT THINK IT CAN PLAY DOOM!!!11
...Doom jokes are a little old, don't you think?
only losers use "u" and "r" while typing
Oh the irony :D
But... but... Jordan's profile icon had the Doom logo... My comment was at least mildly relevant at the time... :(
I love you JLTate. Scissor?
i can sleep now. thank your for this revolutionary journalism.
Well maybe they just made 10 louder and made ten the highest number...
hooray spinal tap
...........these go to F11.
Spinal Tap is soooo passé....mine goes up to F12!! Beat that!
Oh wait...
mine goes all the way from F1 to G18! beat that!
Mine goes from B1 all the way to O89. Beat that!!!
Oh wait... It's just a bingo card. Never mind.
Does it make me a noob if I don't get this at all?
Yes.
No.
Maybe? I don't know. Can you repeat the question?
There's nothing to get, so no.
yes.
Spinal Tap, google it.
Oh, I know that joke, I have the motivational; It's older then the internet. I just don't get what in the picture relates.
If I'm reading your comments right, you get the Spinal Tap references but not the relevance of the picture? If that's true, then follow the steps below:
1.) LOOK at the picture
2.) Notice there are TWO F10 keys
3.) Look at your own keyboard
4.) Notice that there is only ONE F10 and ONE F11
5.) Laugh at the oversight, then return to sleep.
+1 to wolfticket for the Malcolm reference. If I could reply to your reply, I would.
Well played.
yes
Yeah, but you got two F10 keys!
Someone needs to suspend somebody's license to blog.
Next we'll be reading about a new purple sweater. Or vacation photos.
or their trip to the Apple store and the fantabulous service they received.
So...basically Kotaku?
wow a tiny manufacturing error. whoopee
ZOMG APPLE MADE A MISTAKE
ZOMG
ZOMG
ZOMG
lets write a whole blog post to let everyone know...
Can't you just make the 11 spot 10, like on every other amp, and it be just as loud?
But.... This one goes up to eleven.
Hypocritical commenters. First to complain about Engadget's journalism, then they return on Apple keynote days for some of the best coverage in the industry.
I consistently bitch about Engadget's love for all things Apple, thank you very much.
Then you're an idiot. Shut your trap and go for Engadget without Apple news.

I think there is some validity to this being a completely un-noteworthy event to blog. I am surprised they wrote about it myself. Someone must be stoned tonight
For what it's worth, I agree this is pretty lame. At least it wasn't in the middle of the day. I just don't see any reason for people to bitch about Apple news. However, bitching about LAME "news" is perfectly acceptable.
You are absolutely correct: Why remember the word "engadget" when it's so much more convenient to remember "NruNDIYf3BGe7iZ_l7okhQ"? I humbly bow to your (needlessly angry and scathing) wisdom.
