The history of Microsoft keyboard
The Microsoft Keyboard is a computer keyboard, which was manufactured and introduced by Microsoft in the year of 1994. This keyboard was a split keyboard with each half of the keyboard separated and tilted upwards and down from the center of the keyboard. The key arrangement was ergonomically designed in order to restrict carpal tunnel syndrome as well as other repetitive strain injuries related with typing for long duration of time. This keyboard also helps to ensure correct posture while sitting at the desktop. The Microsoft natural keyboard was introduced a year before Windows 95 was launched, which meant that the first version of the keyboard lacked the Windows key, which later versions of this keyboard would surely have.
In 1998, Microsoft introduced the Natural Keyboard Elite and in 1999, the Natural Keyboard Pro as upgraded replacements for the original Natural Keyboard. The Natural Keyboard Elite featured a nonstandard layout of the key block, which was normally found above the cursor keys. Besides there was the arrow keys’ inverted-T layout, which has been changed into a cross-like layout, with left and right arrows keys placed side by side and up and down keys bracketing them from above and below.
Microsoft introduced the Wireless Natural MultiMedia Keyboard in 2004, which came with a row of customizable buttons above the function keys for launching applications or controlling play of music. But the main disadvantage of this Microsoft keyboard is the F Lock key, which is located right beside F12, and which toggles the functions keys from sending normal signals or common task signals.
