	Membrane keyboard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A membrane keyboard is a computer keyboard whose "keys" are not separate, moving parts, as with the majority of other keyboards, but rather have only outlines and symbols printed on a flat, flexible surface.
		Membrane keyboards, which work by electrical contact between the keyboard surface and the underlying circuits when keytop areas are pressed, were used with some early 1980s home computers, and have been much used in consumer electronics devices.
		Chiclet keyboards were a slight improvement, at least allowing individual keys to be felt to some extent.

	Chiclet keyboard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A chiclet keyboard is slang for a computer keyboard built with an array of small, flat rectangular or lozenge-shaped rubber or plastic keys that look like erasers or pieces of chewing gum.
		Vendors unanimously liked the chiclet keyboard because it was cheap to produce, and many early home computers (notably the ZX Spectrum), portables and laptop computers were launched with it.
		In some (but not all) versions of the chiclet keyboard, the bottom three layers are essentially the same as those in the membrane keyboard.

		Keyboards are designed for the input of written text, and also to control the operation of the computer.
		Keyboards typically have characters engraved or printed on the keys; in most cases, each press of a key corresponds to a single written symbol.
		These different keyboard layouts arise because different people need easy access to different symbols; typically, this is because they are writing in different languages, but specialised keyboard layouts for mathematical, accounting, or computer-programming use do exist.
