Because everyone loves brand marketing on their keyboards...
Microsoft would incur far less wrath if they would stop letting their marketing department run their company.
- nindalf 3y agoYou’re going to get shocked when you find the Windows key on most keyboards.
- scrps 3y agoSorry, I assumed the implied word 'more' was obvious to everyone who has used a computer keyboard in the last 30 years.
- paulddraper 3y agoAnd an Apple key on a bunch of others.
- duskwuff 3y agoIt hasn't been an "Apple key" since 2010 or so. On all recent machines, it's just labeled as "Command", with the ⌘ symbol.
- paulddraper 3y agoAh yes, the well-known U+2318 Place of Interest Sign :D
- duskwuff 3y agoThey've been using that symbol on the Command key for the last 40 years. It's probably safe to call it "well-known" by now. (Early Apple keyboards didn't have an Apple logo on the command key either! That was added in 1986 on the first ADB keyboard -- it was added for compatibility with the Apple IIgs.)
- Izkata 3y agoI think I remember calling it the butterfly key at some point.
- tiborsaas 3y agoIt's hard to buy a TV with a remote control that has no streaming provider buttons. I guess that's where they are getting the idea from.
