The "QWERTY"
Keyboard Layout
The standard keyboard layout was designed to keep the keys from jamming on early manual typewriters. By assigning the most commonly used letters of the alphabet to different fingers, the chance of jamming was reduced.
Reminder Bumps
On many keyboards the F and J keys have a small raised bump to remind you when
your index fingers are placed properly on the keyboard.
