    I've worked on computer keyboards that do not have the normal QWERTY top row, what do they have ?

    Question #25326. Asked by sequoianoir. (Dec 19 02 12:10 AM)

    		How could you work on them if you don't know? (only joking Sequoianoir- honest)
    Instead of the English 'QWERTY' keyboards, the French have 'AZERTY' and the Germans have 'QWERTZ' ones

    		http://www.doubleprecision.be/images/keyboard.gif should hopefully give you a layout of the French AZERTY keyboard

    		I can think of three:

    The French AZERTY keyboard
    The German QWERTZ keyboard
    The Dvorak keyboard which is totally different.

    		Thanks for all the answers.
    It was the French AZERTY keyboards that I actually repaired many years ago when I was working in Paris.
