    Type twice as fast with this keyboard

    So I travelled for a bit the past few weeks and a guy told me that he uses a DVORAK keyboard. I asked "WTF is that?!" He explained that its MUCH better then the regular QWERTY keyboard and why... so I googled it when I got home and found more good shit bout it.

    What do you guys think, would you change keyboards to be able to type faster?

          it's a more logical layout. re-learning to type would suck ass but if you want to type faster in the long run, DVORAK is the way to go

                      To learn to type alover again you first have to know to type from the get go...just having fun.

                          Error in your post.

                          This should of been a spam post with refferal link included, targeted at the sigwhores and quick post count wanabees. "Double your posting speed, get in 50% more sig views per day, all for only 29.95". You would of made mad bank.

                          True they would be stuck having to learn to retype but they would have ordered it before they relized it, since we all know they rarely read anything more than a line or two anyways.

                          You sir lost mad bank.

                                      I bet the learning curve wouldn't be to bad, 15 hours a day on the computer.

                                                                                                          Hmm, will be a bitch to learn typing again tho :S

                                                                                                                      http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvorak-toetsenbord

                                                                                                                      So QWERTY was used for old typing machines, where you had to press the buttons very HARD, while this system was designer for the keyboards we use now(dvorak was created in 1930 tho)

                                                                                                                      Hmm, will be a bitch to learn typing again tho :S
                                                                                                                      Actually, on old typewriters, each letter was attached to an arm that would raise up and strike the paper. If you typed fast and hit two letters close to each other, the arms would usually get tangled and you'd have to manually untangle them.

                                                                                                                      QWERTY was designed to seperate letters that were often typed together so as to reduce the frequency of the arms getting tangled. And, it was also designed to consistantly switch the "action" from one hand to another in order to speed up typing and reduce the activity of each hand.

                                                                                                                      Dvorak did his layout in the mid-30s after the advent of electric typewriters which didn't have arms for the keys.

                                                                                                                      (I had to take lots of typing classes in high school).

I would not be interested because I've never heard of it. I'd be lost whenever I used someone elses computer or if I had a laptop with a traditional layout.
