Russian keyboards

[Alina Israeli]

My 2¢. Switching from QWERTY to AZERTY is also not easy if you are  
used to touch typing.

For individuals, not labs, I suppose, there is a Ukelele (sic!)  
program that allows you to change your keyboard layout. It allowed me  
at one point to synchronize my Mac and my PC, because various phonetic  
keyboards place Щ or Ю rather according to their own desires.
