German keyboards are even worse (Score 1)

If you think that the normal Windoze keyboard are bad then you probably haven't tried to write C code on a German keyboard. To get a "{" you have to press AltGr + 7. AltGr + 0 gives you "}" Try working like this for some time and you'll become mad.
I'd like to meet the person who designed this keyboard layout. That would surely be a nice lynching party :)
