Mac + Apple KB != Mac + PC KB != PC + PC KB …
I think I’ve figured it out: I have a mental image of what the “ideal” pairing of computer-to-KB is, and whenever the KB is in front of me, regardless of whether it’s a Mac, PC, Ultra, or even a generic Linux box, I try to type as if the machine normally associated with that KB layout is actually in front of me…
So if a traditional SPARC keyboard is set up with its dongle-converter and attached via KVM switch to a Mac, a PC, and an Ultra, I’ll try to type as if on an Ultra– everywhere! Which, of course, leads to plenty of typos and slowdowns as I try to correct the mistyping.
