Well, I don't think we all feel that way, I kind of like Macs :-)

To (sort of) answer your question: I know nothing about the greek alphabet, but it
seems to me that you could have a set of labels made for your existing keyboard,
and apply them to the keys. Most screen printing places do vinyl cutting, my mother
in law works at one, and she made a set for me for less than $20 (not Greek letters
of course, it was for a project I'm building). It would then just be a matter of
sticking the new letters on your old keys, and changing the setup in the keyboard
control panel. This is not a pretty way to do what you ask, but it would get the
job done if you can't find a real Greek keyboard. Of course if the Greek keyboard
has a different number of keys than an American English keyboard, you can just toss
this suggestion out the window. ;-)
