Copilot key will eventually be required in new PC keyboards, though not yet.

The Windows key is usually on the left side of the space bar but the key in the mock-up here is on the right, so I don't think they're replacing the Windows key.

Yeah, most "standard" keyboards have a second windows key on the right side where that one is.

Huh, didn't know that. Are you sure it's most of them though? I'm seeing more online listings with one key than two, and I don't think I've ever had a keyboard with more than one before. I did have an MSI laptop with a single Windows key on the right side though.

Maybe it's more prevalent on iso Layouts?
