Check out CapSee... it puts a notification bezel on the screen (just like the volume and brightness bezels) letting you know when you bump the caps lock key. It's free, and it's currently Apple's featured download! http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/capsee.html Disabling the caps lock seems a bit extreme to me.

Purpose: I use my MBP to game and use the shift key a lot. While focusing on the screen action, I often hit CAPS instead of Shift with no expected results of course. Since I never need CAPS, I'd love to extend the shift key to it if at all possible. Thanks for any suggestion. What I’d like to be able to do is use the CAPS lock as a 2nd Shift key (thus not lock).

Anyone? Anyone? I've tried making new keyboard maps and everything, but have always failed. What I *really* want to do is disable the Help key. Anyone? Anyone?
