all computers I own, and the ones I use at work, all have AZERTY keyboards. And my classical typewriter is also AZERTY.

It's weird, you live in the flemmish part of Belgium and you don't speak french.
So why do you have french keyboards ?

I know Qwerty exists, but it just doesn't make sense to put the numbers of the top row as default, when you already have the NumPad keys.

it's slower indeed.

If you are used to a type of keyboard azerty or qwerty, it's not easy to change and you think it's slower but it's not.
For exemple i am used with the numbers on the top row of my laptop's keyboard and i can't use a NumPad on an ordinary keyboard. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />
