Question MacBook Pro - MacBook Pro - Replacement Keys with Windows Logo

Anyone know where one can find replacement keys for the MacBook Pro with (gulp, yes I know) the Windows logo on it? If not replacement keys, how about decals (In my XP BootCamp I’m remapping Control, Alt, Windows keys and would like a better visual reminder of their new locations).

Or perhaps any idea where I can find some?

Thanks for your suggestions!

I agree, no sticker or replacement key needed here... It really isn't that hard to remember, IMO.

My two cents?... I would recommend getting used to the differences and simply acclimating yourself to the Mac OS and not worry so much about the Windows side of things.

I'm more of a classic car guy by nature. And most car guys have the motto, "it's your car, do what you want with it". But in some cases, the things people do are "just wrong". For example, putting a chevy 350 motor in an old ford truck: it just seems wrong to cross brands.

I think epople can do what they want with their computer, but I'll have to send this case to the "just wrong" category. But I suppose anyone with bootcamp/XP would beg to differ.
