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?



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...

Regards,
Andreas
