The Keyboard

The number of keys available on your keyboard will depend on which country/region your computer is configured for, with keyboards being available for numerous languages.

There are different types of keys, specifically typewriter keys, function keys, soft keys, Windows special keys and the keypad overlay.

Never remove the key caps on your keyboard. Doing so could cause damage to the parts under the key caps.
