    UK Keyboard layout?


    I just ordered a laptop, and after placing the order I realized it had a UK keyboard layout.

    Is this going to be an issue here in the US. It is a Google Pixelbook.

    The # and \ keys can be awkward too.

    But you can switch between keyboard languages if that's an issue...

    You can use different keyboard languages, sometimes called input methods, on your Chromebook to:


    • Change your typing language
    • Spell check
    • Use special characters, like accent marks or currency symbols
