Who here has heard of The Dvorak Keyboard?

I was just wandering if anyone here has heard of one? My mother used one so that was what I grew up using in tell about 5 years ago. When we got a new computer the old Devorak keyboard didn’t work.


(If any one cares I switched the keys around on her work computer a couple of years ago to the Devorak layout and keyboard language because she can type faster with that. )
