An Odd Question...

[JiP]

Looking down at my keyboard this morning while purchasing something on ebay got me thinking. Do the English have a different keyboard on their computers? I notice how there is no "£" symbol on our keyboard, only the "$" sign.

but it appears they do.

Be glad youre not Japanese.

ever seen an japanese person using a US keyboard to type in their language?

 

my goodness its epic to watch.

 

seems the keystroke to character ratio is about 10:1.
