Have you ever wondered why the letters on a keyboard are organized the way they are? While it seems like the letters were randomly strewn across the keys, this method of organizing the keyboard was developed as a way to slow down typists. Back in 1872, typewriter users were typing too fast and causing the typewriters to jam. So, the QWERTY method actually kept the machines from breaking down and it is still used today
I've known that for quite a while now. Have you ever used the 'Dvorak' keyboard?
I loved it! Can't remember the full layout now, but all the vowels were controlled by the left hand, where A S D F G are on a QWERTY keyboard - A O E U I
I found it quite easy to swap from the QWERTY keyboard at work to the Dvorak keyboard I had at home.
