  • I would actually love to test that keyboard... Though I like the standard layout (for me it is qwertz) and I can type pretty fast with it... but would be interesting if the dvorak keyboard is better!

    • qwertz? I have not heard of this one, but are you from the USA? What type of computer do you have?

      When I was researching this the other day, I learned that most computers support an option to switch to the Dvorak layout internally. For most people, it takes about a month to re-learn and it is advised that you don't use the QWERTY layout(or in your case qwertz) during this process in order to learn it properly. So if you're like me and you have to use public computers regularly (which have the QWERTY as default) it's probably not a very good idea. However, if you do decide to make the switch, I would be very interested to know what observations you come up with.

      • Well I come from germany and the only difference is that we also have äöü and z and y switched and some other minor changes (I don't know all differences but there are some^^)

        And changing the layout internally is just confusing if you can't type without looking at the keys^^ And even if you can I get confused by it^^
