No, there's also an ALT button on the right side. This one lets you use additional 
characters, mostly accents plus that thingy that hangs under the C, which are shown on 
some of the keycaps that are also unique to this keyboard.  It lets people do 
rapid-fire shifting between anglais et francais.
