Keyboard
The 101/102-key compatible keyboard features an industry standard, full-pitch key layout with
desktop keyboard features, such as the isolated inverted-T cursor control keys, editing keys, both
left and right control and alt keys, and 12 function keys. US and International key layouts are
available. Other features include an integrated numeric keypad, hotkeys for instant access to
power conservation, brightness, and other features, 19-mm x 19-mm key pitch (center-to-center
spacing), 2.5-mm stroke, and comfort-dished keycaps.
HP DuraKeys is a clear coating applied over the notebook keyboard that helps protect the finish
and the printed characters on the keys. HP DuraFinish helps protect the finish on the keyboard
deck, graphics, and icons from normal wear and tear.
