The Dvorak Keyboard

[Pokémon]

I got the idea to post it on HF from this thread.

And no, that's the whole point. It's faster, and less hard on your wrists.

This reduction in distance traveled was originally purported to permit faster rates of typing, but in later years is also purported to reduce repetitive-strain injuries, including carpal tunnel syndrome.

That's a direct quote from your post >_<

I don't think I would use it to such an extent to have that happen to me though.

Anyone here know about this keyboard? I'm very curious to give it a try.

The keyboards themselves appear hard to come by but it looks like you can get stickers cheap.

You can also set your PC to simply designate the proper keys too without difficulty.

Pretty interesting imho.

Pretty sweet, i wish i had moola's

This reminds me of Elektrisk, who actually tried this keyboard.

you should reread the quote...

I type rather fast as it is now. I'd be pretty impressed if someone could type faster with one of those things.

Right.. it says it REDUCES the injuries.

This topic is where I got the idea to try it ^^

Indeed. How are you getting along?

I can type anywhere between 75-135 WPM. I think sticking to the default QWERTY would be fine for me, or anyone with a good type speed.

wow what a fail on my part. I'm sorry. My mistake makes me want to try the keyboard more now.
also Nyx I think it be hard to mess up the stickers because they fit over the whole face of the key

Well, right now, I'm using QWERTY. I've been practicing the Dvorak little by little each day. I know where half of the letters are, but I'm not so good with the top row/bottom row. The bottom row holds the least often used characters. It's also weird that the comma, apostrophe, and period are where 'q', 'w', and 'e' are on the QWERTY.
