   There's so much "wrong" with my [German] keyboard I don't know where   
   to start. - But the major point comes with these many "Windows" keys   
   (that you also find on most contemporary keyboards in other country   
   domains). And even those are non-standard; e.g. my "Model-M" replica   
   has the Alt-Gr and the right Windows-Key switched; too bad since you   
   often need that Alt-Gr key (as shown in this thread with { [ ] } ).
