If I replace my English keyboard in my T510 or T520 with a German keyboard, Do I only have to select the language to change the keyboard to?

I use German frequently on other sites and instead of switching back and forth from English to German it just seems more convenient to me to swap keyboards and change the keyboard to German in the OS.

Is it as easy as that or are there hidden potholes I don't yet understand?

Yup, that's all you need to do (switch the laptop OFF before the swap).

Thanks! Yes, I've changed keyboards before, just not to a different language.
