Today's lesson in international business

The European HP laptops have larger Enter keys than the American ones. Plus, they have a lot more keys for the special characters. The German laptops switch the positions of the Y and Z(ed) keys. The English keyboards swap the positions of the @ and ". The pound sterling symbol is on the English 3 key; whereas the pound-number sign is on my 3 key. The Euro symbol is on the 4 key in addition to the $.

Weirdness.

(Can you tell I'm getting a lot of useful information from this meeting?)

And while I may really dislike getting up early (for me), I really enjoy getting to work early. It makes me feel all virtuous and stuff. If it wouldn't harsh Hubbyfink's early morning mellow so much (i.e., having to cut short his showers so he doesn't use up all the hot water), I'd kind of like to make a habit of this.
