Which countries have this keyboard layout? (PICS)

Hello,

In the Czech Republic, where I live, we get this keyboard layout:

(only differences from the 'other one' shown)

I'd like to order a keyboard with layout I'm used to and have all my external keyboard in – where the left shift key isn't cut in half to make room for another one and with wide enter key. The only problem is - I don't know which keyboards have it, apart from U.S. layout. I'm not sure how the availability of U.S. one will be, here, so I'd like to give a few alternatives with my order. I don't care about printed accents, I might as well get a Finnish one, if they layout is good.

So I ask you, please tell me which country your ThinkPad originated in and if it has the shown layout or the other one (I don't want a Japanese keyboard right now, so that does not count :) ).

I'm particularly interested in T60's keyboard, but I doubt it really changes over the time.

Thanks in advance.

Please take a look at this.

UltraNav has the same layout as the internal keyboard. So far as I know, most of (if not all of) European keyboard layouts (as well as French Canadian keyboard) have a bigger enter key and reduce sized left shift key, just like the one used in CZ.

If you want a keyboard with longer left shift key, you need a US keyboard, which can be easily found on eBay or IBM Part Order site.
