The fun is, she couldn't log in because the laptop had a UK keyboard. So 
we sent her a French keyboard. Ah, but the laptop still thinks it has a 
UK keyboard, so now the keys pressed don't even correspond to what the 
keyboard types!

Of course, she changed the regional settings - but only for her account. 
That means the Windows login prompt still has the wrong keymap.

Isn't technology wonderful?

Can my day get any worse??

I said CAN MY DAY GET ANY WORSE?!? DO YOU HEAR ME MURPHY!?
