Copilot key will eventually be required in new PC keyboards, though not yet.

If it's gonna be the windows key being replaced... Why not just use that (just wild assumptions based on the mock up). Tho they can't stop me from sending that key back to it's original purpose with via.

The Windows key is usually on the left side of the space bar but the key in the mock-up here is on the right, so I don't think they're replacing the Windows key.

Yeah, most "standard" keyboards have a second windows key on the right side where that one is.

Huh, didn't know that. Are you sure it's most of them though? I'm seeing more online listings with one key than two, and I don't think I've ever had a keyboard with more than one before. I did have an MSI laptop with a single Windows key on the right side though.
