I am learning to type on the Dvorak Simplified Keyboard. After just one day of practice I have already hit a modest 15 WPM. I am excited to catch up to, or possibly surpass, my current QWERTY typing speed.
Why aren't you learning the Dvorak layout?

Because I'm used to, and like, the QWERTY style.
I'm too lazy for that whole learning thing.
Your nerdery has reached new heights. :|
What’s the point?
Because if I took the time to learn an alternate layout, I would use Colemak. Similar to dvorak but includes certain key changes so that coders won't be looking everywhere for the <

I type using only my two index fingers so it doesn't really matter which keyboard I use.
He didn't need to be insisting on any keyboard if he had to look at what letters were physically written on it in order to type.Quote:

I cba. Though I know it'd be better in the long run, I am complacent.
I hoped this would be about Antonin Dvorak :(
You don't need a special keyboard to use the Dvorak layout. It's a simple setting on almost every operating system in existence. That guy was either an idiot, or just being a douchebag with his request for a special keyboard.Quote:
