I recently bought a Lenovo Chromebook which has a U.S. international 
keyboard.  It's the same layout as the normal U.S. keyboard, but it has 
several extra characters, accessed by using the Alt Gr key. I've had my 
keyboard configured that way for years.  For example, it's easy for me 
to type a ³  or á, etc..

BTW, back when I was at IBM, in the late 90s, in my testing I often 
found myself using an English keyboard on a French system, or French on 
English.  Lots of "fun".  😉
