How nice. Except keys physically change places between standards; where
Americans find a wide shift key to the left of the Z, I find a greater-
and-less-than sign. Where Americans find a slim, lying-down return key
with keys above it, I find an upright return key with keys to the left
of it. Etc.

While you're at it, make your keyboards breakable in the middle and
adjustable like the new Apple keyboard; I find it's reduced pain and
stress in my wrists tremendously!

Anything wrong with the existing bus called ADB which Apple uses for
all it's mice, keyboards, trackballs, joysticks etc? Inventing Yet
Another Bus is not progress, just sideways movement. Using the ADB bus
would not only give you a >10,000,000 installed base head start to sell
to, but also open up a market for ADB interfaces for other computers
as well (I take it you're presently PC-oriented and have a PC card that
accepts your own bus)
