But why does it work with windows XP ( as Paul told me).then ? Because 
it uses drivers?

That'd be a way to support any kind of keylayout, right, be it 
japanese, dutch, azerty etc., so makes sense any way you look at it.
For me, that would really help me speed up the workflow (and allow the 
use of an external keypad/programmable keyboard), so thanx for 
considering it.

Thnx
Dennis
