The International Sony Laptop Keyboard is a function of your Sony laptop's Windows 7 operating system. This selection grants easier access to some international formatting, such as the upside-down question mark in Spanish, the British Pound symbol, vowel accents and math symbols. To turn on the International keyboard option, you have to add it to your list of available keyboards, and then select it for use.
