Antony) Distribution: usa Organization: Brown University Department of Computer Science Lines: 16 Why can't NeXT just design an L-shaped return key that can be replaced for the two keys that are there on the old/ideal keyboard at the users discretion if he/she/it really feel that they need to be politically correct and conform to the "international" standards? This way at least the rest of the people that rather type than read standard specifications can do their work. Now that we already get tilt feet (that I don't need) we could as well get an L-shaped return key as a goodie that is useless... Anyway, how do they now make the distinction between the RETURN and ENTER keys given that there are only symbols on the new keyboard?
