You mean the computer industry standard!  I learned to type senior 
year of hs and the guide dots were on the D and K keys to correspond 
with the middle finger which is your longest finger and thus, first 
placed on the keyboard.  Who in the F*** gave us the F and J keys for 
the guide dots?  It certainly wasn't a typist.  This is one of the 
reasons I will be going back to the Apple Extended Keyboard II that I 
got with my Quadra on my G4 once I get a Griffin iMate.
