Inertia is a powerful force. How many of us are typing on QWERTY keyboards when DVORAK keyboards have a more efficient and logical layout?
Years ago on Letterman (or it may have been on Leno), they brought on the world’s fastest typist, and had her show off her skills. She typed up a whole page on an electric typewriter in just a few seconds.
When the host went to read it back, it came out as completely incomprehensible gobbledygook.
As you may have guessed, she was a Dvorak typist and they gave her a QUERTY keyboard. Of course, this was done with her connivance, to educate the public about the Dvorak layout.
