Well, folks, it's about time I posted again. This time I would like to cover the Dvorak Keyboard layout. This layout is a re-mapping of the keys on the keyboard that was designed to improve typing efficiency. It accomplishes this in several ways, the primary way being the strategic placement of letters of high occurrence in the home row and under the strongest fingers and furthermore increased alternation of hands, which increases speed and reduces typing fatigue. It is also easier to learn, and having practiced now for a few hours, I have already begun to instinctively press the Dvorak key correctly. Nevertheless, I will be practicing for some time before I will be truly proficient.
In any case, try it out - you might like it!
