Posted 2005-07-31, 05:27 PM in reply to Medieval Bob's post "New Keyboard"
There is this one site that sells a keyboard with blank keys...I suppose that could make you a better typist over time. With that keyboard you could also probably remap the keys to dvorak if you please, but it may not be the best idea for learners, but who knows.

A dvorak keyboard is a great idea, as I hear people usually double their typing speeds from a qwerty. However, one thing that's usually a problem is that you sorta loose your ability to type on a qwerty keyboard as you learn dvorak. This can be a problem if you tend to use other keyboards other than your own, such as at work or at school, or even if you own a laptop.

I *think* Windows has a setting for it, so you can bring your DVORAK around with you.

I could never switch keyboards. Can't just ignore the muscle memory that's built up over the years for the QWERTY system.

QWERTY is such a cool word.

Stick with it, I don't think it's worth learning how to type on DVORAK when you might lose your ability to do QWERTY. Who needs to type that fast anyways?

Qwerty is the most successful typeset anyway.

I could never relearn to type. I couldn't forget the QWERTY system.
