I'm using an IBM keyboard, model SK-8820.
Mine have an little ridge on the keytop of those keys.
I've seen keyboards with those, but not many.
My experience has been the exact opposite. Except for very cheap
keyboards, I believe the standard marks have been on F and J on every
keyboard I've encountered (USA) in the past 30 years.
They certainly are on my two Thinkpads, two Toshibas, a Dell, and an
IOGear keyboard. They're also on the 5 key of the keypads for a credit
card machine and remotes from Sony and Samsung. Not all Sony's, though;
some are defective.
I had a close friend who is blind and deaf, and counted on those marks
to touch type.
