Mathew Roper invented the QWERTY keyboard in 1875 when he produced the first commercial typewriter. The invention of the computer keyboard (QWERTY keyboard) starts with the typewriter.

The Sholes and Glidden typewriter first marketed in 1874 is the first model that used the QWERTY patent! Hope that helps Steve
The word "Qwerty" comes from the arrangement of letters on the top row of keys on a standard English-language typewriter or keyboard. It was designed this way in the 19th century to prevent jamming of the typebars, which were common on early typewriters with the previous alphabetical layout.
