Woot, congrats! I think I should be able to re-gain my QWERTY speed pretty soon. Maybe in a few days to a week. I'll post again with an update.

Only recently, but I'm afraid I'll confuse my typing abilities.

you will at first, but if you drop QWERTY, you'll get used to it.

I like my keyboard the way it is...

I see the logic behind it, but...no. I have an average of 80 wpm on a normal keyboard, and I'm fine with that.

I guess I could see using one to f*ck with people who go on my computer. After I memorize the Dvorak, I would rearrange the letters so it looks like a qwerty keyboard.

I used a chart and after the first day I had most of it memorized and I memorized the rest the next day.

For those who don't know, this is Dvorak. --> http://www.mwbrooks.com/dvorak/ And no, I haven't considered because I didn't even know about it before just now. ^_^

Well, I was unaware of this keyboard layout until just now, but I'm not willing to switch from QWERTY. What's the point?

I type somewhere around 110-100 on a QWERTY, not using homekey, and mostly typing with my right hand. Hahahaha. So no. I'm too used to this.
