I've been using Google to try and find a keyboard for my iMac that has dedicated ( i.e. no other use ) functions keys so that when I want F10, I just press the F10 key and nothing else.The media keys are optional but should also be dedicated/single use keys.

Does such a keyboard exist? Because I cannot find it. I'm currently using the Apple USB keyboard with numpad that works great until I go to us a function key.Usually I hit what I think is F10 and instead the music mutes, lol.

In the keyboard System preference pane you can set the behaviour of the F-keys to be standard instead of special function.

Do you know where I can change the hotkey for sleep mode on my iMac? I am using a Microsoft Keyboard and obviously it doesn't have the eject button :(

I know, I tried it but that doesn't do what I want - I separate row of functions keys with the media keys also on their own row.
