Be careful Wishy, you will upset the 'shoutists'.....

Who ever was the first person to equate typing in capitals with shouting?

It's not.....it's just typing in feckin' capitals!

As an aside, do you know why the QWERTY lay of letter is as it is/

Many people think it's about closest letters but no. The letter A would be closer to F if that were true

It was a salesman's gimmick. The word "Typewriter" is on the top line and a salesman trying to sell the then 'new' technology could bash it out in his/her demonstration. Check it out

If only people would pay money for useless information I'd be very rich indeed (;-)

Sorry sweetie but you wouldn't, it was actually arranged like that because the inventor, a Mr.Sholes, wast trying to solve the problem of contionuous key jamming, in 1873 they passed over the design to the remington gub company and the rest is history, more boring than your version I think, hugz, xxx

Ruby is right... it's so the commonly used letters are not close together. Less wear n tear or sticking that way.

Nooooooo, that was Norris McQwerty, who was famously cloned and had a television show in the 1970s' all about people who do amazing things just to get their name in a book!!!!

Oh...... you have to imagine an old typewriter with the semi circular arrangements of metal arms all aimed to hit a centre point.

I got my RSA awards on one of those old fuggers....
