Every key of the Optimus Maximus keyboard is a stand-alone display showing the function it is currently
associated with. Optimus is equally good for any keyboard layouts�Cyrillic, Ancient Greek, Georgian,
Arabic, Quenya, hiragana�and so on to infinity: notes, numerals, special symbols, HTML codes, math
functions, images etc.
The service life of displays and their ribbon cables has been enhanced by making the screens
embedded in the keytops motionless�it�s only the transparent caps that are pressed. Every button on
the keyboard (or, more precisely, a module with a moving cap, a microchip and a display) is easy to
remove in order to clean or replace.

6. Dvorak Simplified Keyboard
The Dvorak layout was designed to address the problems of inefficiency and fatigue whichcharacterized the QWERTY keyboard layout. The QWERTY layout was introduced in the1860s, being used on the first commercially-successful typewriter. The QWERTY layoutwas designed so that successive keystrokes would alternate between sides of the keyboardso as to avoid jams. Some sources also claim that the QWERTY layout was designed toslow down typing speed to further reduce jamming.
