How to change keyboard?

I don't like my Inspiron 8600 keyboard buttons layout. It's very uncomfortable to work when next group of buttons:

Ins Home PgUp
Delete End PgDn is too far from arrows.

I'd like to have Ins and Del buttons at the left of the SpaceBar, and Home PgUp PgDn End buttons to be in line at the right side of the keyboard.

I know that Dell creates that kinde of keyboards.

I want to change my one. Were it's possible to oder ?

Detergen,
 
Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum.
 
Each model of Dell portable has only one keyboard.  There are no keyboards for your system with alternate key arrangements.

Ок. I thought so. But ready to order a keyboard for another model, and install it manualy with loosing warranty and external view. I think that connectors of moste Dell keyboards are universal.

What u can advice me in my problem ?

Detergen,
 
The only advice that I can give you is to install the correct keyboard for your system.

Ok, understude that you are under corporate supervision and ethic :). So let me ask in other words: Is the Dell notebook of last series keyboards have a universal connector ?

And is it possible to order keyboard like parts? And were I can do it ?

Thanx for your answers anyway.
