If anyone has any of those non-Microsoft logo KB's around, would you
be willing to trade me or trade two of mine for one of yours? They
don't have to be Compaq brand so could be HP, IBM or Dell as long as
they are PS/2 or USB and don't have the Microsoft logos on them
meaning that they are not windows KB's, whatever that means.

It doesn't mean anything. A keyboard w/ the Windows keys will work
like any other keyboard. The extra keys generate the same sorts of
scan codes as any other keys. If Pick works with the PC's hardware,
then it should work with those keyboards. If the Windows logo is a
problem (I'd rather not have it either...) then you could pop off the
keycap and replace it with a blank one. There's a cottage industry
for just that sort of thing...
Understood. However, I like the idea that those keys are not there at
all and thus solves the problem of my not wanting those logos there either.
