Actually, the AZERTY keyboard has been proven to be more efficient (enhanced typing speeds and reduced stress on hands), if I'm not mistaken. But people used to QWERTY won't switch.

Jian's in Paris?! I'm jealous!

Al...I have this thing known as a laptop and I don't think the keys automatically change based on the countries you go to!! But I get what you mean...the Frenchies use that very keyboard.
I'm technically not yet permanent in Paris - still floating between HK and Paris until the bloody French authorities sort out the red tape for work permit.
It is nice, but I guess Paris is always over-romanticised and it is different when you are there and working with the difficult Frenchies! Plus life has been more down than up but I guess what is life without challenges isn't it? Sigh..oh well...take care all..let you know when I have a place so you can all come visit..please!
