------------------
Sara,
You don't buy the international keyboard. It is a
software extra that you can add through the Windows
system control panels (keyboard or regional options,
depending on the version of Windows you have).  You
usually have to have the system CD available to
install this and make it available through an icon on
the Windows task bar.

Best,
Samantha Earp
