    If it has disappeared because that MSDN site was restructured, may be one can
    rebuild it quite simply by running MSKLC on Windows XP (shipped with that
    keyboard) and generating a KLC file to recompile and install separately in
    Windows 2000...
    But if Microsoft really wants to be serious, it should better think at enhancing
    the keyboard if it still lacks some features and wants to produce an update for
    Windows 2000, XP and 2003 as well. Is the .KLC definition source file produced
    when running MSKLC on XP enough for that language?
