Lynn,
If both keyboards are standard (no special keys) then
they are completely interchangeable. Unfortunately,
many PC makers are now building keyboards with
unique and specialized keys (like a special key to load
the web browser). These new specialized keyboards
____might___ work, but those extra keys will not.
