Where can I buy a keyboard with an Ubuntu key instead of a Microsoft Windows key!!! 11.04 is so cool with the new super-key function but it seems a bit strange to be using a windows key so regularly on an ubuntu machine. My current solution has been to colour in the windows key and then put a smiley face sticker on top! It would be cool if you could buy an Ubuntu keyboard or even perhaps some super-key stickers to cover up those little annoying windows symbols!!!

Stickers . . . from Canonical or System 76. Not a windows key left on one of my systems.

The package of stickers from Canonical are pretty good. If you order them, and don't live in the UK, do as I did and buy several sheets. You are going to pay the postage just the same. And, there is a sticker on the back windshield of my car to identify me as a Ubuntu user.

Does having ubuntu on your car, prevent it from crashing? :lol: :lol:

I just have a blank bit of vinyl on mine. It matches the key and it's not noticable, as the Windows logo was inset in a recessed disk. I'd consider the System 76 logo, but it might not be exactly the right size, and the text on my keys is light gray, rather than white.... ;)

Still, it was very silly having a Windows logo on a computer that doesn't run it.
