Υπήρξε πολλή συζήτηση πρόσφατα σχετικά με τη χρήση των πλήκτρων συντόμευσης στα Windows 8, κυρίως επειδή το 90% + των ανθρώπων που θα χρησιμοποιούν το νέο λειτουργικό σύστημα για τα επόμενα λίγα χρόνια δεν θα έχουν πρόσβαση σε μια οθόνη αφής.
Πολλοί άνθρωποι εξακολουθούν με τα παλιά πλήκτρα συντόμευσης, και δεν μιλάμε απλά για Ctrl + X / C / V εδώ.
