"ThinkPads are well known for the quality of their keyboards. This has long been a strength of the ThinkPad brand, but when we say how good ThinkPad keyboards are we almost always implicitly mean 'relative to the keyboards on other laptops'. That might not be the case for everyone though, because the ThinkPad Full-Size UltraNav USB Keyboard is currently available for sale and it is a testament to how attached people have become to these keyboards."

In my experience with a T60, the right edge of the trackpad makes an excellent scrolling device to complement the trackpoint. It's even better in Linux where the scroll wheel scrolls what's under the cursor, not what's currently active.
The Ctrl and Fn being the way they are was certainly very irritating for the first few weeks, but it's quite possible to get used to it.
F12 and delete being next to each other has never bothered me. I really like the placement of delete. Some keyboards place it near the return key, which is much more dangerous IMO.
One thing that's quite annoying in a few games, though, is that the F keys aren't aligned with the number keys. F2 is above 1 etc.
