Let's positive thinking!
So, I borrowed this keyboard from a friend to do some last-minute schoolwork. I've been using it in Dvorak mode almost exclusively, as my habitually bad QWERTY typing style is further aggrivated by this keyboard's lack of staggered rows. I've done Dvorak keyboards before, but never really learned them.
Has anyone with a Dvorak keyboard ever noticed the weird typos that come with switching from QWERTY? For example, the "O" key is in the place of the "S" key on a normal keyboard, so a momentary lapse tends to turn my plurals into fake Spanish. (My favorite was probably systemo - sounds like the name of a robrt from a poorly translated foreign sci-fi flick.) There's an "S" where I expect an "L," which only seems to trip me up when I try to type "all." It's almost like this layout was designed to make QWERTY users feel stupid.
Anyways, I love the keyboard itself and highly recommend it, especially if you have problems with wrist strain. (I'm buying one myself once the company has them available again.) Just funny getting used to.
