Trying to find out how difficult (or not) it will be to switch from iso layout to ansi. Main reason is the much better choice of keycaps that will be available.

Have any of you made the switch ? If so how difficult was it ?

I switched from iso to ansi a month ago. It has been easy, for the most part. I have to regularly use both ansi and iso (working laptop) and so far I'm having no problem mentally "switching" between layouts.

The only thing I'm having some difficulty in are the dead keys, especially for the ' and the é, which are pretty commons in my language.
