Who invented the manual typewriter?
The first typewriter, a invention made by the Austrian carpenter Peter Mitterhofer in 1864, can be seen at the technical museum in Vienna (Austria).Christopher Latham Sholes also invented a typewriter. Sholes was a U.S. mechanical engineer who invented the first practical modern typewriter, patented in 1868. Sholes invented the typewriter with partners S. W. Soule and G. Glidden, that was manufactured (by Remington Arms Company) in 1873.Interestingly, they put all the letters for the word 'typewriter' into the top line, to make it easier for demonstrators.The actual concept of a typewriter goes back at least to 1714, when Englishman Henry Mill filed a poorly-worded patent for "an artificial machine or method for the impressing or transcribing of letters singly or progressively one after another."The very first typewriter proven to have actually worked was built by the Italian, Pellegrino Turri in 1808 for his blind friend Countess Carolina Fantoni da Fivizzano.Sholes applied for a North American Patent in 1873 and his machine introduced the qwerty keyboard. The machine was actually produced by the Remington Arms Company.The first typewriter was invented and patented by Christopher Latham Sholes in 1867. His design was improved, modified and adapted by other engineers in the late 19th Century.
Where was Christopher Sholes make the first typewriter?
that question makes absolutely NO sense whatsoever. The bloody question would have to be something like "Where was Christopher Sholes when the first typewriter was made?" See my point?
Who was the inventor of the type writer?
Christopher Latham Sholes. Circa l874. He sold the patent to Remington. rather than future-shock phase-out, when these computers came along they appropriated the traditional keyboard- minimizing retraining problems, as the asdfjkl; board is standardized. Mr. Sholes also designed what is essentially the keyboard QWERT or ASDF-JKL; still in use!
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.

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.
Why did Christopher Columbus's parents name him Christopher?
First, there is absolutely NO way to know why parents in the 1400s (or even today!) name a child a specific name! Maybe Chris's parents did not like names of John, George, or Thomas.
