Michael is right. The new spelling system that they came up with is stupid, confusing, and a waste of money, and time. Just like changing all of the police car colors.. I mean WTF!!!! If you are talking to Germans from you comp. you can use ss, but in school, or a legal document, and so on, it would not.. straight from the book, you can not replace ss with Ã. But Like Michael said, being a foreigner to Germany, it is well accepted.
Salty- yes there are.. The German keyboard is quite different from the US one. I am not sure if its the same as in the UK. Caplock on a German keyboard is also like shift for the numbers ontop.. If you have caps lock in, and press 1 it will show up as ! Took me a while to get used to it. The ? mark is where the ) is (In that area) and the y and z are switched.. YOu can google it though... This is just from memory.. Im not 100% sure of everything anymore.. sorry I cant be more help.
