Qwerty keyboards intended specifically for the US market (opposed to the UK for instance) frequently do not have AltGr keys. The thinkpad I'm using right now doesn't have one, and the Das Professional I have next to me doesn't have it either. Come to think of it, I'm not sure if I've ever owned a keyboard with an AltGr key..

To get around this, I have taken to using xmodmap to turn my right alt key into altgr.

I'm surprised to learn that the Das doesn't have it.

How would you tell…?

Ha. Only the Das Ultimate doesn't have printed keys. I got the Professional which has printed keys (http://www.daskeyboard.com/model-s-professional/). I'm not that show-offy about touch-typing. ;)

Tip: I've got both, the blank one isn't worth the hassle. I can type fine on it, except when I need to find & or something. Then I have to press all the numeric keys to figure it out.
