- I just purchased a IIvx.
- Ive noticed that with several programs (mostly games like Oids)
- the keyboard doesnt seem to send the proper codes to the software.
- Anyone else noticed this problem?
- Some programs even pop up dialogs like:
- "dont recognize your keyboard layout"
- I'd be interested to know what changed and if theres a
- software fix to correct it.
-
- Also, just my 2 cents, but (Flame on) the new standard keyboard layout
- REALLY sucks. I wonder who the moran designer was who decided the
- escape key would take up less space if it was to the right of
- the space bar. I'd return it and buy an extended if the UC-irvine
- nazi apple store didnt have a "Absolutely no return" policy.
- (or it this a new Apple education policy)
