In computers, the keyboard is an arrangement of buttons that each corresponds to a function, a letter or a number. They are the primary devices of inputting text. In most cases, the keyboards contain an array of keys specifically organized with the corresponding letters, numbers, and functions printed or engraved on the button. They are generally designed around an operator’s language, and many different versions for different languages exist. In English, the most common layout is the QWERTY layout, which was originally used in typewriters.

In this sense, the term “desktop” refers specifically to a horizontally-oriented case, usually intended to have the display screen placed on top to save space on the desk top.

A laptop computer or simply laptop, also called a notebook computer or sometimes a notebook, is a small personal computer designed for mobility. Usually all of the interface hardware needed to operate the laptop, such as parallel and serial ports, graphic card, sound channel, etc., are built in to a single unit. Most laptops contain batteries to facilitate operations without a readily available electrical outlet. In the interest of saving power, weight and space, they usually share RAM with the video channel, slowing their performance compared to an equivalent desktop machine.
