This is what it's usually on PC keyboards. For some reason unknown to
me, PC and Apple are using different keyboard layouts.

I personally have get used to the PC layout (this makes it easier to
switch between PC's and my macs, and the []{} chars on the PC layout
are also in a better position for programming in languages like C or
perl).

Here are the X keymaps I am using on a lombard:

(BTW, what I am wondering is: how would I make Mac-on-linux to use
the same keyboard layout, when run in a console? I think it's not
using the console keymaps, instead it shows the usual Apple key
mappings. And I would prefer a PC layout in MOL..;)
