A strong second on this.  In fact, I have come to prefer the Japanese
keyboard to such an extent that if I were to leave Japan for an extended
period, , I would take several spare Japanese keyboards with me in case I
spilled coffee in a keyboard or built a new machine or anything.   Of
course, I would also be running either a Japanese-capable or
Japanese-localized OS on any machine I had, too.

Cheers,
