Bad argument, I life in Belgium where the deafult keyboard is (just as in France) the 'azerty' layout.Everybody starts swearing at me when they have to use my computer, which has probaly the only qwerty keyboard in a ten miles radius.
So in these regions were azerty is the default layout, you're suggesting that all computers will be delivered with a non windows OS in the years to come :-)
