[muglo] Re: eMac Keyboard Problem

Guys!

You're fishing up the wrong tree... It ain't Apple so much as Apple's desire
to sell into the Education and Government markets in Canada (last I looked
La Belle Province is still a part of Canada and so much the better for us!)
and that means a Bi-lingual keyboard. At least it's not Azerty. I think
Apple's great for even considering the customers it has in Quebec. Canada is
officially bi-lingual and you can either like it or get involved and change
it. Don't blame apple for meeting Canadian requirements!

'Scuse me while I get an umbrella for the coming shit-storm of commentary.
