Dvorak keyboard

Recommended Posts

Anyone here use one? How long did it take you to learn it? I decided to make the switch since my hand is broke and I am typing slow anyway... Course I have no use of my left middle, ring and pinky finger...

When I tried it*, I was touch-typing at nearly QWERTY speed in a couple weeks. I eventually switched back to QWERTY because my average speed was better if my fingers weren't confused by which keyboard I was using.

I don't think Dvorak is any faster on a computer keyboard, despite enthusiasts' claims. It might be faster on a manual typewriter -- but you weren't going to use one of those, were you?

*on an Apple IIc. There was a switch to change the keyboard assignments, but you had to pop the key caps off and rearrange them.
