microsoft sidewinder X4 BE Azerty
« on: Tue, 01 November 2011, 04:21:40 »
Hello everyone!

I'm interested in purchasing one of those sidewinder X4 boards but I've never seen one become available here, in Belgium. I was wondering if anyone here knows if they ever made a BE Azerty version of this board? I sent a mail to microsoft support but they just said it is no longer available in belgium, implying it was at some point but I can't find one in any of the online shops or catalogues I've searched.
Ofcourse if anyone happens to know a nice alternative (decent rollover & preferably has media keys) available in belgium please let me know :) Thanks!

edit: I figured out that the manufacturer's code on a microsoft keyboard contains the localization so I did a search for a Belgian sidewinder X4 (JQD-00010) and got no results so I guess it was never made. I'd prefer a belgian model so if anyone knows a good alternative please let me know, but failing that I'll settle for a QWERTY - amazon UK still has some

I imagine french azerty would be more common, have you looked into that?

Also, I'd still recommend a cherry instead.
