At this very moment I'm in Paris struggling to use my brother in-law's computer avec its strange French keyboard. I don't know how the French ever manage to write programs, all the useful keys are in silly places, and need shift to use.

The letters don't bother me to much, qwerty or azerty, it's the punctuation marks and other specials that drive be nuts - I could probably get use to the main keyboard without a problem. When I lived in the US, I found US qwerty keyboards highly annoying when compared to UK qwerty keyboards - just because of the specials. I suppose once you have got use to one layout? all the rest seem hard.
