Interesting truth about computer keyboards


Here are some interesting facts about the keyboard, not just our standard QWERTY keyboard, which we also look at some other types out there.

Check the truth!

QWERTY keyboard

On the normal QWERTY keyboard, the word 'word machine "is the longest word can be done with the letters only on a row of the keyboard, of course the top row.

QWERTY keyboard created by Christopher Sholes in 1868 and is currently the most common type of keyboard used.

It is also called universal keyboard.

Back in 1868, they had typewriter and put the keyboard in this way to prevent the machine slowly wrong.

The first typewriter only type with flower print.

The QWERTY keyboard for the average computer is still most common mainly due to cheap prices and it's easy to happen.

Dvorak keyboard

In 1932, Professor Dvorak tried to implement the last keyboard would be easier to use than QWERTY.

Dvorak's idea to make it better than the original by arranging the letters according to the frequency.

The keyboard has all five most common and five consalons in the middle row: AoEuidHtns.

The letters on the middle line, also known as homeowners, make a total of 70% of work.

On their qwerty only 32%.

The most popular letters in the bottom row, because it is the most difficult approach.

Gaming keyboard

Then there is a dedicated gaming keyboard, arranged in the way that the most popular letters to play games are grouped together for easier to use.

The gaming keyboard is also lit up, so that the keys can be seen easily.

The original keyboard is not made correctly for gaming purposes, so in my opinion, this is a pretty good idea.

Hope you are not a keyboard expert and you learned something new in this post!
