PC keyboard
(redirected from IBM PC keyboard)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
PC keyboard
(1) Any keyboard made for the PC.

(2) The keyboard introduced with the first IBM PC in 1981 that provided a dual-function keypad for numeric entry and cursor movement. It was severely criticized for its non-standard shift key placement, which was corrected with the AT keyboard in 1984. Regardless of key placement, users have always loved the feel of IBM keyboards.
