Ok did you guys know that the keyboard layout used to today is actually inefficent.... it was ment for typewriters for a reason. Basicly what happens is the most used letters

   frequently used pairs of letters are seperated to keep the typebar from jamming
somehow this setup carried over to computers

Yep. I knew about this a while ago. That's why a lot of people (read: supergeeks) have switched over to Dvorak.

Personally, I believe in the power of Qwerty, cause like... I'm so totally used to it, and losing my 70 wpm to switch to a new style of keyboard would seem like a huge sacrafice to me

I agree with DT, I don't type correctly (chicken type I think) and it seems to work out ok.

I still use it also... but just think in 30 years people are going to be laughing about our primitive keyboards

It just seems that a quick fix for a problem has followed us to where it's not a fix anymore

It's taken me this long to master a QWERTY. While Dvorak is appealing, I'm way too lazy to learn a different setup.

No.


Anyway, I personally love my Qwerty keyboard.

Wasn't there a character in Perfect Dark named Dr. Dvorak or something?  The mission objectives made you think you were rescuing a scientist guy, but it turned out to be a floating computer...

I'd give you some spam, but it looks like you've had enough for one thread.

Indead I am also too lazy to learn a new setup. I just thought the computing section could use some activity.

Lol, no. German/Croatish keyboards are QWERTZ instead of QWERTY. Actually every language has a slightly different keyboard. Look, what I have here as a normal key: ß (that´s a german letter)

I would switch, but I learned how to type with this keyboard, and I don't see any major companies switching.

He does that on purpose to be special, but Blizzard probably has the normal apostraphe key somewhere too.

*cough* Ahem.. well to get back on subject, it does seems like a nice layout, but what about a layout for l33t speak. Maybe they should just replace the e key with a 3 etc. etc.

Where there are no gold stars, demerits, or infractions. <3
