The Dvorak Keyboard - Wikipedia (paraphrased)

This quote was added by tailzd
The Dvorak keyboard layout was designed with the belief that it would significantly increase typing speeds with respect to the QWERTY layout. Dvorak believed that there were many problems with the original QWERTY keyboard pattern, and studied letter frequencies and the physiology of the hand and created a new pattern to alleviate identified problems.
