The HP spill-resistant keyboard is designed using a thin layer of Mylar film under the keyboard and a

 

drain system that funnels fluid through a hole in the bottom of the notebook. This minimizes the risk of

 

damage to sensitive components underneath. The 101/102-key compatible keyboard features an

 

industry standard, full-pitch key layout with desktop keyboard features, such as the isolated inverted-T

 

cursor control keys, editing keys, both left and right control and alt keys, and 12 function keys. U.S. and

 

International key layouts are available. Includes a full numeric keypad, hotkeys for instant access to

 

power conservation, brightness, and other features. It has 19.05 x 19.05 mm key pitch (center-to-center

 

spacing) and 2.5 mm stroke.

 

HP DuraKeys is a clear coating applied over the notebook keyboard that helps protect the finish and the

 

printed characters on the keys. HP DuraFinish helps protect the finish on the keyboard deck, graphics,

 

and icons from normal wear and tear.
