![]() One may wonder whether any improvement is possible, regardless of whether that change is likely to be adopted by users. The keyboard itself is the longest-lasting component for computers that has undergone the least amount of change compared to other components such as visual displays, secondary storage, data/connection ports, printers, and processors. Today’s smart phones predominantly use soft keyboards with touch screens, which means many costs identified in past research related to keyboard hardware are eliminated. But when this keyboard transitioned to smart phones, users changed the primary hand digits used to type from ten fingers to (usually) only one or two thumbs. Grant was President of the United States, with only a few minor changes occurring to that keyboard layout over the years. Still, when it came time to place a numeric keypad on a computer keyboard, the calculator model with 7-8-9 at the top prevailed.The QWERTY keyboard layout has existed since Ulysses S. It turns out that decision was largely arbitrary: no one had done any research about which layout was most convenient for users. When Bell Labs began exploring keypad layouts in the late 1950s they contacted all of the leading calculator manufacturers to find out why they had chosen to put low numbers at the bottom and high numbers at the top rather than the other way around. Either arrangement would have seemed very odd, indeed.Īll this raises another interesting question. If 7-8-9 had been at the top, one of two things would have happened - the letters and the numbers would have run in opposite directions, or PRS would have been the first set of letters. When it came time to match letters of the alphabet up with the numbers, putting 1-2-3 across the top made a lot more sense because it was the most natural way to get ABC in the top row. The study concluded that the three-by-three version with 1-2-3 in the top row was the easiest for people to master. The real answer seems to lie in a study conducted at Bell Labs titled “Human Factor Engineering Studies of the Design and Use of Pushbutton Telephone Sets.” Published in the July 1960 issue of the Bell System Technical Journal, the report says that researchers tested a number different layouts including the three-by-three matrix with the zero at the bottom versions with two rows of five numbers, arrayed either horizontally or vertically and circular configurations with numbers laid out in clockwise and counterclockwise fashion. But accounts from people who worked for Bell Labs at the time indicate that this version isn’t necessarily the case. One common explanation for the discrepancy between the phone and the calculator is that phone company engineers intentionally reversed the calculator layout because their research showed that people who were already adept at using a calculator punched the buttons too quickly for the telephone switching equipment to correctly register the numbers. Back then, the industry-standard typical calculator had nine columns of numbers, with 10 numbers in a column, the lowest digits at the bottom, starting with 0 and moving up to 9, and was basically a mechanical adding machine that closely resembled a cash register. The existing rotary phone with its circular dial and counterclockwise number arrangement, with the 1 sitting in the upper right, was one. There were two logical models, of course. The question: how to arrange the numbers. The place, Bell Laboratories, where researchers are preparing to introduce an alternative to the rotary telephone, something they called push-button dialing (which later came to be marketed as “Touch Tone” dialing). So what gives? Why aren’t all such devices created equal, anyway? After all, here are three devices that we use on a daily basis, and they all share a basic layout - an array of 10 numbers in a three-by-three arrangement with the zero sitting down below. Q U E S T I O N: Why do the numbers on telephones go from 1 in the top left corner to 9 in the bottom right, while calculators and computer number pads go from 1 in the bottom left corner to 9 in the top right corner? - Joel K.Ī N S W E R: A wonderful question, gentlemen, and something that I have puzzled over myself. Q U E S T I O N: Why do the numeric keypads on computers and calculators reverse the configuration on a telephone? I’m certain that thousands of wrong numbers are dialed daily because of this.

Monopoly isn’t the only “Force Awakens” product that excluded Rey. “I would still like to see it where any girl or boy or person who goes to buy the game, Rey is in there,” Carrie Goldman commented. That would satisfy Annie Rose Goldman and her mother, Carrie. You know, they could actually make good on their promise and sell the game and the Rey token in one handy package. Of course, it would be even better if Hasbro gave their customers some credit and trusted that they would buy “Star Wars: Monopoly” even if - or because - it includes the film’s main character, who just happens to be female. That way the pieces would at least be readily available and consumers wouldn’t have to make a special request for them. retailers don’t want the new game” story is 100 percent genuine, Hasbro has the option of distributing Rey tokens individually. Going to customer service is an extra, unnecessary step that could annoy consumers, if they even know to do so in the first place.Īnnie Rose Goldman, the young girl who asked “Where’s Rey?” in a 2016 letter to Hasbro, said requesting a Rey token via customer service is “an awful lot of trouble.” Goldman added, “They didn’t keep their word.”Įven if the “U.S. Instead of completely ignoring Rey, the protagonist of “The Force Awakens,” Hasbro is now making her an inconvenience. ![]() Yeah, we’re going to have to call bullshit on this one.
