Morning good folk.
I'm a rapid touch typist (as the length of emails to friends will verify!) and I want to buy a laptop. However, what puts me off is that the keyboard is in the WRONG PLACE! You have to stretch over what seems like an acre of space to get to the keyboard and for nearly 50 years I've been used to a keyboard (not to mention a typewriter, remember those???!) right in front of me.
Why on earth can't the clever boffins who MAKE these things put the keyboard at the front and the inner workings at the back instead of the other way round. Or is it just because there aren't many of the touch typist species left? It would help most people, I'd have thought. Does anybody know any good reason why it started off the 'wrong' way round? I'd be interested to know.
Cheers,
MizzyH
