The Avant Stellar looks like this:

or
 http://www.northgate-keyboard-repair.com/ultra.jpg

in other words, "duplicate arrows/Home/PgUp/End/PgDn set" plus duplicate row of
function keys at the top. The only differences with the two pictures are
beside the *spacebar*: to the left instead of "" there's a dedicated (but
reprogrammable) "Windows key", and to the right there are four, not three, keys
-- instead of "*" there's a right "Windows key" and the "alternate Windows
key". The Ultra Plus doesn't have these duplicate Fkeys (which are
reprogrammable too -- in other words, you can completely change the character
mapping of the keyboard (swap Ctrl and CapsLock etc etc), but you can also
assign macros to any key, i.e. a string of characters or an action of some sort.

Interesting-looking keyboard. Good reviews too. How much is that one?
USDollar is getting cheaper, as you know...
