[Cialug] HP Probook 4520s Keyboard

[Todd Pierce]

My tilde key requires hitting it twice.  The single quote and double quote
both require a double strike too but then come up with a non-ascii version
of the same character (I know this because the lisp interpreter doesn´t
understand the quote chars).  The only function I tried was print screen
which did actually work, come to think of it.  Num-lock and keypad work
fine.

So, I´m really not too bad off, it´s just a bit weird, and well, ultimately
the machine is for programming, which depends on quotes and a tilde.
