Hello,

I've never thought about the layout of the AZERTY or QWERTY keyboards, why that order when we have our ABCD? It's a very good question...
Can someone tell me why this order is like this??

azertyuiopqsdfghjklmwxcvbn

qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm

PS: I'm not sure if this is in the right section...

Configuration: Windows 7 / Opera 9.80

    Hello.
    AZERTY is the French adaptation of the QWERTY keyboard.

    It first appeared on typewriters to better distribute the keys in order to prevent the rods from jamming:
