Who designed the layout of the QWERTY keyboard?
Quote from www.wikipedia.org QWERTY (pronounced /ˈkwɝti/) is the most common modern-day keyboard layout on English-language computer and typewriter keyboards. It takes its name from the first six characters seen in the far left of the keyboard's top first row of letters. The QWERTY design was patented [1] by Christopher Sholes in 1874[2] and sold to Remington in the same year, when it first appeared in typewriters.
Why computer have qwerty keyboard instead of having abc keyboard?
This goes back to when people used typewriters, a man named Christopher Sholes did not like when he had type bar problems (When two different letter 'arms' got tangled) so he made a new typewriter layout which has been nicknamed, the QWERTY keyboard. Christopher Sholes was a newspaper editor and printer who lived in Milwaukee. The reason computers have QWERTY keyboards is because the most used letters are right there for you to type. If we had an ABC keyboard it would overwork some fingers and underwork others. Therefore the keyboard would not be as efficient as a QWERTY keyboard. Also, typing would get tiring.
What was the other alternative keyboard to QWERTY?
There are several. But a popular one is DVORAK. Supposedly faster to type on. What I didn't like about it was that all the keyboard shortcuts I used in programs didn't work. Take Ctrl-c for example: you can hit that with just your left hand on QWERTY. But in DVORAK, the 'C' key is where the 'i' key is in QWERTY, so you have to use both hands. The other side of the coin is: You knew you were re-learning how to type when you started learning DVORAK, so why are you complaining... :) But in answer to your question: DVORAK -The Jay Man

Who patened the qwerty keyboard?
The QWERTY design is based on a layout created by Christopher Latham Sholes in 1873 for the Sholes and Glidden typewritter and sold it to Remington in that same year. It became popular with the success of the Remington No. 2 and No. 3 and No. 389 of 1878, and remains in use on electronic keyboards due to the network effect of a standard layout and a belief that alternatives fail to provide very significant advantages.
