where's the location of your backslash key?
I'm getting tired of different location of backslash key on various keyboard. Now, where is the backslash key on your keyboard??
edit: option 3, 4, 5 are weird indeed, but I swear I've seen those before

Interesting. Where is your forward slash key then?

You sure you know your back from your front....methinks it very unusual if your backslash is where your forward slash normally is.
By the way....I checked all 7 keyboards in my immediate office - three different brands - and backslash on all was just below the backspace key and to the right of ].

Mine's to the left of backspace. I think there'll be a lot of confusion between the forward slash (/) and backslash (\) though

The poll question is what confused me, not which is which, just which he wanted to know.

Well if he did indeed want the backslash key, then I will say that it is below my backspace key and above my enter key.

There does seem to be some confusion here, so I went for a look over at http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/ntriples/
There it mentions the backslash key \.
That's opposed to the forward slash key /, which on all the keyboards where I am is left of the right shift key.

I'm also tired of the different locations of the backslash key on various keyboards. In my opinion, if the backslash key is not between the backspace key and enter key, it's in the wrong place. I've also seen the backslash key to the left of the enter key.

Ok, to the right of my right shift key.
Then again, I have another one on the same keyboard on the right of the left shift key, next to Z.
