English QWERTY keyboards

There are three types of keyboard layouts in the English-speaking world:

• The US keyboard layout is used in the United States, English-speaking Canada and Australia
• The UK/Irish keyboard is used in Great Britain and Ireland
• The US International keyboard is used by English speakers in Europe.

Dell makes the three English qwerty keyboard layouts but only the UK/Irish and US international are available to customers in France. Here are some of the main differences between them.
