It's a fact and a belief about a fact.

Or, as the philosophers would say, it is a true justified belief.

I don't stop believing I'm sitting in a chair just because I find out I'm 
right. I don't stop believing that song was by Bach just because you show me 
the CD and it has Bach written on it.

Would you say "I don't believe I'm using the keyboard to type"?
