Because on laptops without a numpad (therefore not 102 keys), the é,à, è keys are shared with the numbers, so you need to use shift to get an accent. That represents an unacceptable increase of the "use of pinky finger per sentence" ratio

However, take a look at how many USB ports the computer has and WHERE they are located. Mine are all on the side (in my previous laptop they were on the back) and having them there is really annoying, particularly if you want to use a mouse as well (like I do) and maybe a wireless internet connection. I am really sorry I didn't look for these features when I bought.

Best keyboard (mac-like) for a desktop PC
Jun 4, 2015
I dislike my present keyboard for my desktop PC. I want to trash it and buy a better keyboard.
I like the keyboard on my MacBook Air, the "feel" is great. What is the closest to this "feel" available for the PC.
