\Talk about typos…
I wonder what possessed HP to make such a keyboard. I know different geographical areas have different types of keyboards but this doesn’t appear to match any particular type. HP either has a really bad sense of humor or poor quality control which resulted in mislabeling of keys. Maybe both.

Actually this isn’t the worst. If you want to see the worst keyboard design ever, check out the below link for the IBM PC Jr. chiclet keyboard.

I think this is a foreign but English keyboard layout.
Correction: It seems to be an adaptation of the UK layout. Possibly so they can use the UK and US layouts without having to change the physical keys.
But, a horrid layout for sure.
[@naveed] UK keyboards still have a “£” sign above (shift) the “3″ key. (We haven’t been “euro”-ed yet!)
Its the American layout, the UK keyboard has the @ and ” swapped. Also ours goes 3/£, 4/$.
I have a HP laptop and this is the same keyboard layout. Personally, I would rather have the old AT layout. It just felt right.
