Enhanced keyboard

Enhanced keyboard

The enhanced keyboard is a type of computer keyboard first made by IBM which has 101 or 102 keys. The major difference between this and previous XT/AT keyboards is the twelve function keys arranged in a line across the top of the keyboard as opposed to ten grouped on the left hand side of the keyboard.

Most new PC keyboards now have 104 or 105 keys, with the addition of two Windows keys and a menu key.
