Found this morning for 5 euros, a boxed Apple wireless keyboard.

Was not working at the first place (corroded batteries) managed to clean the mess and provide good contact all round, posting with it right now... a real improvement for me.

I also been given a nice mug, apparently original item, old stock, really nice.

Also found an external Hard drive, not tested yet, modern and not Apple, for 4 euros.

 
NICE swag!

What's with the funky lookin' Enter key? I've seen that on a German Language Duo KBD, a French/Canadian Duo(?) KBD and now on a French(?) KBD. Is there some extra key or specific arrangement of keys needed for languages over there that makes for the (unsightly-YMMV) disruption of the KeyPad's lines? It reminds me of something tacked on as an afterthought.

 
Well, definitively a french "AZERTY" keyboard, my wife has exactly the same, supplied new with her Imac a couple of years ago.

Well, the M and £ keys are in the middle row... I guess they are squeezing out the place where the Return key should be!

 
I always love seeing alternate key layouts.  I have a Japanese keyboard I learned to type on, so it is very difficult to use standard US fare. I always carry a Japanese layout with me!
