    Does anybody have any experience trying to learn how to touch type using the dvorak keyboard? I'm thinking about learning, but wanted to hear some other experiences...especially since I'm pretty adept at qwerty.

    Also...does Asus sell a keyboard that has the letters printed on the keys in the dvorak layout?

    Thanks,
    Erik

    I tried to use a Dvorak keyboard (virtual one) it was fun, didn't take me too long to get used to because of its layout is quite nice. However ASUS does not make them for their laptops. What you will have to do is remap the keys to the Dvorak layout and you should be good to go.

    Of course the letter on the keyboard will be qwerty, but when you press them they will be Dvorak. I know u want to physically see Dvorak, i guess u can take some clear tape and put them into the key and write the letters in manually. ;)
