Interesting.  Made me look around me at the different Norwegian layout
keyboards in the office.  Looks like Lenovo (both laptops and standalone
keyboards), Labtec and Logitech got it right ("bar").  HP and some
noname keyboards got it wrong ("brokenbar").

The Apple keyboards don't have either...

So I guess keyboard manufacturers in general are as confused as the rest
of us.
