The limitation becomes more visible when you hold several keys at once. Perhaps <code>W</code> and <code>Shift</code> work together, but adding another key makes one of them disappear. Another three-key combination may work perfectly.</p> <p>This can happen even when every key works on its own. The reason is often not typing speed or a slow computer. Many keyboards detect keys through a shared electrical arrangement, and the design determines which simultaneous presses can be identified reliably.</p>
