The Keyboard
The computer's keyboard layouts are compatible with a 101/102-key
enhanced keyboard. By pressing some keys in combination, all the
101/102-key keyboard functions can be executed on the computer.
The number of keys on your keyboard depends on which country/region's
keyboard layout your computer is configured with. Keyboards for
numerous languages are available.
There are five types of keys: typewriter keys, keypad overlay, function
keys, soft keys and cursor control keys.

Typewriter keys

The typewriter keys, produce the upper- and lowercase letters, numbers,
punctuation marks, and special symbols that appear on the screen.
There are some differences, however, between using a typewriter and
using a computer keyboard:
Letters and numbers produced in computer text vary in width.
Spaces, which are created by a "space character," may also vary
depending on line justification and other factors.
The lowercase l (el) and the number 1 (one) are not interchangeable on
computers as they are on a typewriter.
The uppercase O (oh) and the 0 (zero) are not interchangeable.
The Caps Lock function key locks only the alphabetic characters in
uppercase while the shift lock on a typewriter places all keys in the
shifted position.
The Shift keys, the Tab key, and the Bk Sp (backspace) key perform
the same function as their typewriter counterparts but also have
special computer functions.
