There really ought to be a "lock" key on any keyboard that has dual purpose F-keys.
The keyboard I use for my living room PC has no F-lock key, but it is the one keyboard in my life I actually use the mute/vol/brightness... stuff rather than the F1/F2/F3...
Every other PC in my life, those "helper keys" get in the way more than they help.
