Sometimes it has happened that some function is mapped to a really inconvenient or even non-existing key or isn't mapped at all by default so in those cases I do bother of course. I guess it's partly because I don't play that many games at all and usually just a few at the same time. The other part is that I use different computers with different keyboards often anyways. Laptop keyboards especially... My new Dell laptop at work is a right pain, they put home and end on arrow keys behind the Fn key and Fn is right next to the windows key... So I seem to be hitting Windows+left or right quite a lot without meaning to.
