Keyboards are different in laptops when compared to desktop PCs, because of various reasons primary one being space constraints in terms of dimensions (both length, breadth and height). For laptops keyboard has to be integrated as part of the machine body. Laptops will be far bigger in size if similar layout and size of keyboards were used. Also due to height/thickness restrictions on laptops the vertical movement on keys (amount of depth for which the keys are pressed) is also less compared to desktop PC keyboards.
