You definitely want to be sure of that! I was cleaning the keycaps on a
Honeywell keyboard, of which I had several, and so I just popped the caps
off the keyboard I was cleaning, and then realized that each keyboard had a
slightly different layout, and I couldn't use one of the other keyboards as
a model for the keycap layout of the one I was cleaning. To top it all off,
when I finally got the keycaps back on in the right places, I discovered
that the keyboard was broken. Out of seven keyboards, I managed to pick the
broken one.
