Mac Keyboard used with PC

[kazuyom]

Can I use Mac keyboard on a PC computer? Is there anything that I need if the answer is yes? I just love the touch of Mac keyboard.

Which keyboard is this? Windows keyboards have the START button which might get mapped to the CMD button, and the ALT button should map to OPTION.

Nothing inherently preventing it from working if it's USB or Bluetooth.

Yes I am considering USB connection keyboard. The PC doesn't have bluetooth so it will be USB.
I shall give a try - thanks

On my Mac I run Windows 10 through VMWare fusion and when I click on the CMD key, the Start menu pops up, so technically this should just work out of the box that way without you having to do anything special.

Yes, similarly I was using my Mac to connect remotely to my work PC which was Dell at that time and the keyboard short cut keys got a bit confusing when using Mac to handle PC workstation recognising CMD as ALT and Ctrl as CMD but this was kind of a reverse situation.. I will give a try later! Thanks

The USB keyboard is working very well with PC now - it's just that @ and " are replaced as usual, as well as # and \
Thank you everyone! I love Mac keyboard.
