Well, I do not know if it is the majority. I had one laptop (Dell

What is an "ethernet 3 port"?

William meant to write "USB 3", not "ethernet 3".

Maybe my XPS13 has one and I'm too stupid
to recognize it. It does have 2 USB3 ports, into which I can plug a
cable to my phone to tether it. But I know it has some port to plug in
a high-res TV, so I guess that's good enough for the modern user, seems
pretty obvious where the trends are headed when you have to press Ctl +
F3 to get a simple F3 instead of some media control function.

I think usually there's some way to switch the default keycode for
those kinds of keyboards.

Microsoft's "Sculpt" ergonominc keyboard as a little switch you can slide
to have the Fn keys be Fn keys or idiot buttons, at your preference.

If it does have an "ethernet 3 port" I'd like to know how to recognize
it. It definitely has no holes big enough to accept a traditional
ethernet cable, let alone of the right size and connection
configuration.

As an aside, this ASUS I'm using has a wired ethernet port that is
as thin as a USB port, but accomodates a standard RJ45 connector
by having a hinged bottom lip.
