The question then becomes, are we doing a disservice to the kids? Virtually ever kid is going to leave your school and work on computers with a qwerty layout, and employers generally frown on anyone tearing apart their equipment for anyreason.

Thanks for this e-mail.  I am going to teach myself the Dvorak keyboard layout.  I did some research and this just makes way to much sense.  I actually set my Win2000 PC to be able to switch between the QWERTY and the DVORAK key mapping.  Its simple to set the computers up.  I searched on the internet and found two nice web-sites that discuss the Dvorak keyboard printed out a PDF file of the key mapping and now as I am typing this its in Dvorak. I think that is too cool.  Its going to take a little effort, but any change requires effort.

 

Those web-sites that I went to are included, if this personal interest you as well:
