POLL: For those who use a dvorak keyboard

[tweakmm]

what has been your experience with it?

 

[khtm]

i have a feeling this will be one of the lowest-voted-on polls yet. (except for "I just wanna see the results.")

I agree

 

[dionx]

tried it once, but slowed down my instant messaging drastically. ill stick with qwerty.. more universal for now.

 

[Shermanator]

I tried it a couple months ago, but it slowed down everything I do, and I am so used to qwerty (80 or so wpm) that I just can't get used to dvorak, so I gave up.

 

[gogeeta13]

someone link me. wtf is dvorak? sounds like a german philosopher or something

 

[CraigRT]

Never used DVORAK.

I can type very fast on my QWERTY though.

Wish I could find the link. A while back I read that the test showing the superiority of the Dvorak keyboard was taken by.....Dvorak. Oh well. I am getting kind of tired of the Microsoft 'natural' keyboard, though.

 

[GigaCluster]

I wouldn't mind switching, but only if I had a hard-wired keyboard and didn't have to pay upwards of $50 for it. A "happy hacker" Dvorak keyboard would be nice -- I could carry it with me if needed -- like to a friend's house

gogeeta13, here's a search for you.

thanks for the link.

OMG, dvorak is suck. there is no way I could switch. I type on close to 6 different machines a day, daily, and sometimes more..

i LOVE the ms natural pro, best keyboard since the original IBM and lexmark AT keyboards

 

[LAUST]

I know QWERTY is a POS but I want to stay used to it as I work on many systems a day

 

[CraigRT]

I just like my regular Logitech internet keyboard..

I even prefer my $7 Mitsumi keyboad at work over those damned MS ones...

It's not just the naturalness I hate, it's even the feel of the keys! I just don't like the entire thing.. I've never used DVORAK, don't even know what the layout looks like.. no need, typing on this thing is fine.

what are the advantages of dvorak?
