Computer Keyboards

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.

Alt+1+4=♫

Don't use the to row of numbers use your NumPad to do it. I was trying to do it from the number bar and was like wont this work but i found out its the number pad that does the trick hope this helps out thank you.

Alt + 13 also does a single note ♪

That question is IMPOSSIBLE to answer unless you are more specific. Korg or Yamaha? It depends: on which instrument, which model, what you are looking for, where you are at on the learning curve, what you plan on doing with the instrument, whether you prefer weighted keys or a sequencer to a larger variety of 'programs' or sounds, which sounds (and sound 'quality') you personally prefer, etc., etc. Please do be more specific if you would like a serious answer. This of course has mostly to do with personal preference, but that personal preference depends on a lot of the things I mentioned above, plus over a dozen others I haven't mentioned.

Pianos, and keyboards, each have 88 keys.

Computer keyboards have about 100 keys, some more than others. There are 26 letter keys, 10 number keys (other than the keypad), 12 or more punctuation keys, 12 function keys, a space bar, shift and control keys, and arrow keys. The oldest had 83 or 84 keys, the latest in the US have 104 keys, and other languages have extra keys.

4 cursor control keys are there .←↑→↓

do you mean wake me up when septemeber ends by Green Day?

if you do then its guitar, bass, drums and vocals as usual in green day songs

The first keyboard instruments were found in ancient Rome. It was callled the hydraulis, and was basically a water-powered organ. It had to be pumped by another person to maintain pressure, and was used to accompany gladiator matches. Experts also believe that Nero did not play the fiddle as Rome burned, but instead the hydraulis. Sadly, no complete hydraulis have survived. The last whole one was lost in a Turkish raid on Constantinople around 500 AD. The oldest playable keyboard instrument is the organ at Sion in Switzerland. It dates from the 1430s and, despite Victorian additions, contains 12 original pipes.

The actual "q, w, e,r,t,y" letters, in my opinion, are not used that much besides my having to type them just then! I use the home row a whole lot more. If you want a fraction for how much qwerty is used, I would say maybe 1/10, if that, and only one or two letters then. Do you want the force exerted by fingers on the qwerty letters measured? I would say that the home row (a,s,d,f,g,h,j,k,l,;) are used for 2/3 of the work done by typists, with the space bar coming right (space) after (space) it!

all you have to do to play the keyboard is get the notes of each key online, once you know them go on you-tube and type in the song you want to play, so for example.. how to play Rhianna unfaithful on keyboard.. then look for the video that you like and practice you will know how to play in no time... it took me a week (and i didn't even know the notes) to learn how to play a thousand miles by Vanessa Carlton. its easy just go for it.

As far as I know, the official name of a computer typing keyboard is the Qwerty Keyboard.

This is due to the top alphabetic line's first six letters.

They are arranged in this way to separate the mostly used keys as in the type writer days, when people became fast typers, the needle kept getting jammed.

Probably, however she is best known for playing the harp.

Though I'm not sure who actually invented the wireless keyboard, one of the first wireless keyboards was part of IBM PCjr in 1983.

Home front is the civilian population (and their activities) of a country at war. It usually applies to any aspect of wartime life not associated with actual hostilities.

The average length of a computer keyboard ultimately depends on the type of keyboard it is. The uncommon small keyboards, packed with only numbers and an enter button (give or take a few buttons), are usually about 5 inches wide, and 7 inches high. The more common keyboards, consisting of the number pad to the side + the QWERTY-styled letter keys, are usually about one-and-a-half feet long. Those without the number pad are usually about one foot long.

QWERTY has become tradition.

The first typewriters DID have alphabetical layout, but they got too many hammer clashes and the resulting jams, slowing use.

QWERTY was developed to significantly reduce hammer clashes thus making typing on early machines faster. As almost all typewriters became QWERTY most , then all typists were trained on it and nothing else.

It is still tradition, even though computers and modern typewriters do not have the hammer clash problem it was developed to fix.

The "QWERTY" keyboard (named for the first 6 letters on the top row) was developed to slow down typists on old manual typewriters. With a regular ABCDE.. keyboard setup they would type too fast and cause the keys to jam. With the QWERTY setup they typed slower and prevented key jams. It became the accepted standard and persists even after electric typewriters & computers made the original reason irrelevant.

Calculations. More specifically, addition, from that even computers now days just use addition. For example, when you want to subtract something, it just adds a negative amount. When you want to multiply, it just adds that many times. For division it sees how many times it can "subtract" then shows the remainder as a decimal.

It was originally laid out like it is to take allow the strongest fingers to be in contact with the most commonly used keys. The QWERTY keyboard layout was specifically invented, around the turn of the century, after studies on the English language, to be counterproductive, i.e. to make users type as slowly as possible. This was needed because the old, mechanical, typewriters would jam if the user was typing too fast.

The first computers had no keyboards, all data was entered offline via punch cards or tape. The first keyboard connected to a computer was a standard electric typewriter and would have had the same number of keys as other typewriters.

Christopher Latham Scholes invented the qwerty keyboard in 1875.
