The QWERTY keyboard is not random. It was designed by Christopher Sholes in in the early 1870's. He was trying to design a type writer that didn't jam up with rapid succession of the type bars moving (a fast typist). After trial and error for several years, Sholes eventually developed the QWERTY keyboard that had the lowest rate of jamming of all designs he tried. For more information, search Wikipedia for QWERTY. Thank you.

Well, Logitech makes a lot of keyboards and conclusively has the best gaming keyboard. There is the G19 LCD Gaming Keyboard which is every nice however pricey. I would just go with one of Xoxides light up keyboards that they sell for twenty dollars to be honest.

At any one time you can only be working on one cell in Excel, like when you are typing data. Even if you have many cells selected, only one can actually be used. That cell is the active cell. All other cells are inactive. So an inactive cell is any cell that is not the active cell.

On microsoft word, there is a sign at the top which says "symbols" and you can pick one so it should be on that list!

No. The most common letters of the alphabet are on the lefthand side of the keyboard. They are e, r, s, t, followed by a. On the righthand side of the keyboard, only n and l are common letters. The spacebar can be used by either hand and is a personal comfort choice, as is the caps function.

This answer is specific to typing and not other types of computer keyboard functions such as keyboard shortcuts and maneuvering through documents with hot keys, with hands or one.

If the keyboardist uses lots of numbers, much can depend on whether or not they use the number keys across the top of the keyboard. Again, that's split equally between the hands. But, if they use the number pad for numbers, then it's purely a righthanded thing.

Similarly, if the keyboardist likes to use keyboard shortcuts, use of both hands is equal. But, if the keyboardist likes to use their mouse, then the righthand dominates that function.

It all really depends on the keyboardists and their use preferences.

there are different kinds of keyboards because people don't think alike. in other words, some people prefer their keyboards looking that way instead of this. Or, simply because of their functions. it depends on the user. for instance, if you're at home; you don't need a wireless keyboard right. but if you're in a lab, it would be very convenient to use one cause you don't want to have wires everywhere do you.

Computer keyboards many keys. All the different key are part of the following categories:

1. Control keys (like Ctrl & Alt)

2. Typing keys ( A to Z and .,?!£* etc)

3. Function keys (F1 to F12)

4. Numeric keypad (the number keypad on the far right)

Save the clipart to your computer by right clicking it and clicking "Save Picture As." Save it to your desktop, or some other convenient place, and then insert it into your document.

The keys on your keyboard can be pulled up and carefully cleaned. You also clean the surface the keys are attached to, avoiding any electronic components visible. You must be careful when removing the keys, you could damage the locking mechanism. I would suggest a forum for your exact model of computer. That will let you know how your keys connect and the best way to remove them. You could also attempt to blow out the keyboard with air, cleaning out dust and dislodging any tiny object that may have gotten stuck under a key. They sell the air in most stores.

Typing an arrow icon facing the left should look something like this:◄. In order to do this hold down Alt and type 17 on the Num. Pad. Typing an arrow icon facing the right should look something like this:►. In order to do this, hold down Alt and type 16 on the Num. Pad. Alt. and 24 through 27 should look like these:↑↓→←.

Turn off your computer (so you won't hurt anything). Then, run your rag over keyboard. Use rag to get in between cracks. You can also use Clorox bleach clothes to keep your keys and mouse clean and disinfected.

Turn the Keyboard over and support it at an angle and pond on the back side. You will be amazed at what comes out.

Department stores such as Walmart, Best Buy, Target, and K-Mart, sell air cans. They have a thin straw that you can attach to the nozzle to get out any dust that you may have in your keyboard. The can looks like an aerosol can.

For Example: If you wanted to type 90 degrees on Word Pad or Ms Office, etc. Then on your right number key pad, type in 90, and then with left hand; hold down alt key, and simultaneously type in 167 on right number key pad; and the degree sign will show. Note: Make sure that number lock is on!

To type ə, hold down the Alt key and type 0601 on the number pad.

Ensure that numlock is on. You must use the number pad and not the numbers across the top of the keyboard.


This is a unicode character and will not display properly in all contexts. For example, it works in Wordpad, but not in Notepad.


If you are having trouble getting this to work, you can launch the Windows "Character Map". On my system it is located at "Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools" (this may vary with different versions of Windows).


In the Character Map, locate the Schwa symbol, you may then select it, and copy it for pasting someplace else.


Also you notice, when the Schwa is selected in the Character Map, the status bar reads U+0259. 259 is the Unicode number for this symbol in hexadecimal. 0x259 converted into decimal is 601, which is the code typed on the number pad. This can be used to type any Unicode character, if you are using an application that supports Unicode.

There are a great many words that could be considered a funny word for mouse. A furball is a funny word.

Gross speed is raw speed. It is a calculation of exactly how fast you type with no error penalties.

Net speed takes accuracy into account. To calculate Net WPM, take your gross WPM result and subtract the amount of errors you left in per minute, also known as the error rate.

The most used key on a keyboard is probably the space key...

the vowels of the alphabet are also frequently used.

It does nothing if you aren't using it for any programs. But if you have a program open like Microsoft word the F7 key opens up spellcheak. You see the F- keys do different things in different programs.

UNLESS you are holding the FN key in the bottom left hand corner, if you hold that then it will do what the picture in blue shows on the F7 key.

You have to get to the BIOS to do that.Here is how to get to the BIOS and get your Computer to boot into the CD:

To enter the BIOS is very simple. As soon as you boot up your system rapidly hit the Del or Delete button on your keyboard, and if that doesn't work reboot your computer and this time hit rapidly the F2 Key (At the top) and if that doesn't work reboot again and rapidly hit the F10 Key.

After you get to the BIOS go to "BOOT" and make sure that the CD Drive is at the top, and to do that go down to the top option then hit enter then select the CD Drive.

Also make sure the boot order is like this:

1.CD Drive2.Floppy Drive3.Hard Disk Drive

Then go to the top and go to the right until you get to "EXIT" then go down until you get to Exit (Save Changes) or Save Changes and Exit.Reboot with the CD in the Drive and it should automaticly boot to the CD.

I hope this helped,PSPSlimBoy ☺ :)

Posture: You should be sitting upright with your feet on the floor. Your wrists should float an inch or two above the desk/keyboard (NOT resting on them) And the keyboard should be at a level so that your elbows bend approx 90 degrees. Wrists should be straight.

Fingertips should rest on the "home row" keys... asdf for the left hand and jkl; for the right with thumbs over the space bar. Assuming a standard QWERTY layout of course.

The keyboard should lie flat on the desk, not slanted upward, do not use the retractable legs on the back of the keyboard to tilt it.

Consider a split or "wave" ergonomic keyboard. Once you get used to it, you may find it much more comfortable. In all respects a good quality keyboard can mean the difference between severe pain or years of uneventful typing.
