Not sure about the layout, but Cherry is an American company (they make
switches, and builds keyboards from them). This keyboard is from a UK
reseller, so I'd guess it would have a UK layout (not much difference,
other than replacing shift-4 with the GBP sign, rather than dollar).
US keyboards are QWERTY, German ones are QWERTZ... on a US layout, the Z
key on the bottom row beside the left shift.
