I bought a Czech Apple Keyboard recently. But surprisingly, it had a QWERTZ layout. This is an old Czech layout used on typewriters, but I seriously doubt you could get it anymore on any notebook. So I don’t understand why Apple uses it… Anyway, the task was to swap Y and Z key.
I got some advice from guys at macblog.sk forum. This is a how to video. Unlike in the video, the standard wired keyboard has the key mechanism 90 degrees rotated. See detailed photos of the mechanism, if you want to swap keys as well.
I was just now searching for about this when I came by your post. I’m simply visiting to say that I really enjoyed reading this post, it is very well written. Are you planning toblog more on this? It appears like there’s more depth here for future posts.
