Microsoft is adding a new key to PC keyboards for the first time since 1994::Copilot key will eventually be required in new PC keyboards, though not yet.
I mean, it seemed pretty obvious from the headline, but the article specifies that while they’re doing this, it’s not like they can somehiw make the 100s (if not thousands) of different keyboard manufacturers include this key…
What might happen later is they require OEM products to have it when they come with Windows.
Which would still really only be an issue for laptops.
And I’m pretty sure even people with “gaming laptops” don’t use the built in keyboard most of the time.
I dunno tho. I’ve never been able to understand the people who buy gaming laptops.
Do they require the windows logo on keyboards?
Its existance and function are part of the keyboard spec, genarically called the “super” key. Theres likely a contract and a social force keeping the logo present and not using the genaric logo. Some Reaserch I found
