Get a Model M (or other decent keyboard), pop 'em
off and reshuffle.
The letter keys are generally interchangeable, the only problem would
be a cheap keyboard that won't let them go gracefully.
I dunno, I've seen at least one keyboard where the keytops were
sculpted to provide a slightly dished typing surface. Not normally
noticeable, but if you swapped keys between rows the difference became
*really* obvious.
I think it was the Televideo 950, but that could be wetware bitrot.
Looking at the Sun type-3 I'm using right now, it looks as though it
too has the same property in a more subtle form - I should swap some
keycaps and see....
