I'm so jealous of Nyx-. I started practicing again while I'm in Jamaica.



Also, with games you can just rebind the keys to the Dvorak keys so if there's a talk feature you won't have to use QWERTY.

The problem is that I am unable to us DVORAK at school. I don't know if it will be confusing to switch from DVORAK at home to QWERTY at school.

Interesting, I'll have to look into this keyboard.

Looks interesting - I might give this a go sometime!

I switch back and forth and it's not too bad at all.

I've been curious about this keyboard myself. Though, I heard that most of the speculation that it is faster than the Qwerty was speculated by the creator of the Dvorak keyboard, Dr. August Dvorak.

EDIT: This would be a lot easier with a program to help. Does anyone know of any program such as Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing, but for the Dvorak layout? MBTT supports the Dvorak layout, but the virtual keyboard within the program is still QWERTY, so it's essentially the same as some Flash game that requires you to type :p

EDIT: This is extremely frustrating. It wouldn't be so bad, except I don't have stickers for my keyboard :/

I believe on linux, there is a program designed for typing. I believe it's name is Tuxtype. I'm am not sure, however, whether it supports the use of the Dvorak keyboard.

If QWERTY was designed to perform well in the sense that a typewriter won't jam up with it and Dvorak was designed with typing efficiency in mind...why wouldn't it be faster?

That keyboard looks pretty sexy imho.

I'm not saying that it isn't, I'm saying that Dvorak was the one who made the most claims about its speed, and he's the main source of information stating that it's faster.
