You are so right! This is just unacceptable! But I now have the answer! Can I borrow someone's 3D printer so that I can make my own identical keys except with Cyrillic letters only? There is no rush, after all, I'm not going to actually use it, it's just going to be a decorative piece in the living room along with the drink coasters with the little platforms made on top of mice. This long thread has not only shown two excellent keyboard supplier's, one in the US and one in Europe, which should be helpful to anyone wanting to buy any type of keyboard. The off-list mails I have had made some other methods I would not have thought of for a quicker solution that is excellent, cheap but a little bit of work. Laters Dude, Christofor Eduardovich
