The position of the Alt-Gr key moved and shrunk, with its original position replaced by that (***) M$ keys which will screw up your input when pressed falsely. This isn't aktually blind-keying friendly...

These M$ induced keyboard layout changes are a PITA. The US designers of the Windows keys (who the f**k needs them, or even knows their
function?) certainly didn't spend a single second thinking about other locales that don't have brackets/braces/backslash as a direct key, but need Alt-Gr for it. I'm still using hand-selected old keyboards that have the Alt-Gr keys still in place, where they have been for > 10 years.
We may be grateful we still don't have a Bill-key instead of 'G'...
Nice rant Andreas, but I use the windows key quite regularly. I still have Alt-Gr on my keyboard as well... (as do most, if not all UK keyboards). Do you have an additional key next to the space bar that we don't have?
Regards, Andreas
