Comment DVORAK or QWERY? (Score 1) 624

I've used DVORAK for 10 years after 15 years on QWERTY. With all due regard to Reason magazine, my RSI disappeared, my speed improved, and the number of typos I made went down significantly. Try typing "the cat is on the mat" or any sentence in DVORAK and QWERTY and you'll quickly conclude that the Reason article is thoroughly misguided. Keeping your fingers on home row makes a huge differenec. As far as switching back and forth, yes it can be done. The only weird thing is that since I learned DVORAK on a QWERTY keyboard, can't name the keys aloud or point to a given letter if I'm asked, I have to type the appropriate letter first. This is actually a good thing since it means I never look at my keys.
