Yep, I inquire every few months about when the next model is going to
come out.  :-)

I didn't know you could swap the Alt Key and Command Key. But now that
I poke around the System Preferences, I see how.

I wish TypeMatrix would have left the Ctrl in the lower left hand
corner. I actually press it there with my *hand* which leaves my
fingers over the keyboard. I guess I'll start doing that with "fn".

Thanks,
