No problem. It is just that--"function." Think of it as another function 
shifting key, just like ctrl and alt are keys that make other keys do 
different functions.

For example: FN+F7 cycles through three video settings. You'll care when 
you hook up to a monitor, or to a projector when doing a presentation. 
You'll care when running on batteries.

Mostly, it doesn't matter.
