Hi RAKESH. Both the words have the term board in it but the motherboard is internal. Itdoes the processing, the main functioninfg of the computer. In other terms it is the brain and the keyboard is external. it is omly to put in input. Its just like our mouth. hehheehehe. HOPE ITS CLEAR. but just the way we need the mouh and the brain, the computer also needs the keyboard and motherboard.

Oh, they are not the same thing at all. The keyboard is something that you input your words. You need to type by your fingers on it. The motherboard may be called the mainboard. It's something inside your computer. It is the main part for your computer to work.

They are both very different things although they share quite similar names. Motherboard is present inside the cpu, it consists of all the chips that make the computer run, all the hard drives are loaded onto it. It is basically the processing unit of the compute. Keyboard on the other had is the device with which v interact with the pc by typing in letters, numbers, special characters n all. The keyboard is the one thru which u strtd this discussion from...

The keyboard is what you use to type with. The motherboard is internal, basically it's the heart of the computer. It handles system resources as well as core components like the CPU, and all system memory. It accepts expansion devices such as sound and network cards, and modems.

No, A Keyboard is the Unit of Hardware that allows you to type words, letters, and symbols on your computer. A Motherboard is a Unit of Hardware that allows your unit to in a sense "Think" or react with your movements of your mouse and your Typing on a Keyboard

Keyboard is just for writing things to screen and it doesnt matter what kind of keyboard you buy to your computer, but motherboard is the head of the computer, all the other parts inside computer sends things to motherboard which controls them and shows things in your screen, or atleast that is what i know..
