- lexicality 4y agoWhat do you mean?
- Macha 4y agoThe laptop pictured has a US keyboard layout, that's just how the US keyboard layout is. They also have an ISO/most-of-world keyboard layout (with options for qwerty/qwertz/azerty labelling, at least on last gen), as seen on the laptop ad in the footer (assuming the link doesn't get changed from the french site after I post that comment, if it does, just go look up the order form on an EU site)
- chrismorgan 4y ago> ISO/most-of-world I’m not certain, but I’m under the impression that the ANSI layout is more common than ISO: that, potentially simplifying a tad, ISO is used in Europe, JIS in Japan, and ANSI everywhere else. (I have experience in Australia, New Zealand, India and the United States, and they all use ANSI.)
- joseda-hg 4y agoISO is also used in South America, so it's maybe a "European language that's not english" thing All the countries you mentioned are English Speaking (Or have a really significant English speaking population), maybe that's why they all use ANSI
- nrp 4y agoThat is correct, we are making both ANSI and ISO Keyboard Modules for the Framework Laptop 16.
- alias_neo 4y agoI think that's US layout. I assume they'll have a proper Enter key on the ISO layouts.
