I just changed my keyboard type to Dvorak, which is supposedly a faster way to type. I'm trying to get used to it, but I think it'll take a while to get un-used to 10 years of QWERTY. Title is the first clause typed normally, but with keyboard set up like Dvorak.

I still don't get. | Look at the diagram of the Dvorak keyboard.
Click "Start"
Click "Control Panel"
Click "Clock Language and Region".
Click "Regional and Language options".
Click "Keyboards and Languages".
Click "Change Keyboards
In "Text Services and Input Languages" click "Add" then scroll down the list to "keyboard" find "United States Dvorak" click OK.
Click down arrow on bar.
Click "US Dvorak".
Click "Apply".
Click "OK".
Click "OK" Regional and Language close.
Now your keyboard will act like that diagram. It supposedly is over twice as fast to type like that, if you get used to it.

It's practically useless for me.
Not only would I have to re-learn it, but my mom would throw a freakin' fit when she tried to type an email.
Also, if I try to get a job that requires typing, I'm screwed.

I shouldn't do this. I'll lose less fat by typing if I did this.

Guys when you do this, it isn't irreversible. The language bar shows up in your taskbar, with an added keyboard icon. You click that, and a drop-down menu shows up to select either English (United States) or United States (Dvorak). All you have to do is switch between the two. What you think I've been writing all of these past posts in Dvorak? Fuck no, I'm really slow at it.

It's a waste of time to get good at it if you're already 'good' at QWERTY. | But you can get better at Dvorak. That is like being raised up walking backwards, and thinking it would be pointless to learn how to walk forwards because you are already good at walking backwards.

| It's only 'faster' because all the vowels are right next to eachother.

You have a point there... | I'm going to print out the keyboard diagram, and cut out each individual key and tape them (so I can easily remove them) to the keys over the summer and spend a while learning it.
