The Norwegian one is different. I don't know where it would be on a British keyboard, and I'm not sure what kinda keyboard someone from Australia (au?) wouldhave.
We use yankee keyboards here:-)I don't know the differences between US and UK keyboards, but we've been using dollar-based decimal currency since Feb 66, so we use the same currency symbols as North Americans.
And our native language is English*, so no funny accents to bother with.* I've heard from reliable sources that certain Australians were in Atlanta for the games, and used a few cabs. In the course of conversation, one asked a cabbie whether he'd be in Sydney for our games. The cabbie said, no, he didn't think he would be understand the language.
Our Aussies had a bit of that: took them a while to figure out what the booees were:-)
