When was the first keybroad invented?

Christopher Sholes invented the modern typewriter around l867 ? It was after the civil war as they were not used in that period. Sholes sold his patent to Remington until recently very much a business machines name. It is popularily believed,though with any fungible, mass-produced device such as a typewriter difficult to prove, that the frist popular writer to regularily use one was Mark Twain. (Tom Sawyer) was typed out as a manuscript, rather than hand-written, literal meaning of manuscript. Keyboat usical instruments, that"s a whole nother smoke, Clavichords and such like. There was a modest attempt to revive the clavichord as a sort of intermediate instrument between a piano and a guitar, with a guitar-like sound by some German instrument makes inthe ealry sixties. Despite Berlin Concerts for the Boys in Olive Drab ( USO Army benefits) the idea did not really Twang. it is interesting to speculate if it had it might have changed the course of popular music. Lap Steels are almost a form of clavichord but on a different principle used by C&W musicians.


Who discovered the computer keyboad?

Depends on WHICH keyboard you're asking about. Christopher Latham Sholes invented the QWERTY keyboard in 1875 when he produced the first commercial typewriter. The name of QWERTY derives from the first six characters on the top alphabetic line of the keyboard. the order of the keyboard consists of the letters you use most on the homerow (asdfghjkl;) But there were other keyboards ahead of that. Piano keyboards for instance. And straight off alphabetical keyboards.


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.


When was sholes typewriter introduced?

1873 was the first commercially-available model (about 50 made), after which the design was bought by Remington. Sholes went on to develop the QWERTY keyboard, which is probably why his name is so closely associated with the history of typewriters.
