I don't know about the keyboard, but I have a utility that will work on 99%
of PCs and allow the NUM LOCK key to be used as GOLD. You still have the
problem with the double height + key, but it's a lot cheaper....

I am about to post/upload a new version of this. It'll be called GOLD20.
Look out for it in the PC newsgroups and eventually on SIMTEL20.
