   But it's also a Dell, which means they "added extra weirdness".   
      
   The plugin USB Microsoft Comfort Keyboard, does not work in the Dell BIOS.   
      
   A Bluetooth keyboard is more likely to work on a smartphone or a tablet maybe.   
   Maybe in the UEFI era, this has changed, but I have not read any stories   
   about BT keyboards and modern computers, to know.
