Just map the character set you want to the keyboard and start using it. It'll take some getting used to but if you're a touch typist it mostly comes natural. Living in Sweden, using a P50 with a UK layout which I switch between US-intl and Swedish layouts there isn't always that much relation between what's on the keys and what appears on the screen but by now I'm used to it. As a bonus it makes shoulder surfing passwords an exercise in futility...



His problem I think is that in europe we have the enter key using 2 rows, and in USA it uses 1 row only.

So probably he hits what on my keyboard is "ù" when he wants to enter.

I own a laptop with a USA keyboard and I dislike that, because no amount of mapping can change the fact that USA layout has 1 key less.
