Well, dammit, my eyes are not good enough to read those itty bitty key images. But the line about "It was designed by committee and no suggestion was rejected" is a good one. Wait, my system haS a Zoom function ... no, dammit, even at 400x I can't read the keys, because the plastic was shiny. I only get an impression that there were LOTS of little characters on each key. I earned my living typing for forty years, and I came across a few weird keyboards. I can only be thankful that I never had to deal with that one. -- Dorothy J.
